I always feel a little jealous of religious people when they do these things.

I guess us secularised, atomised people should just make our own.

We'll soon have AI as our God replacement, we can then pray to it.

Remember any unexplainable technology in which we blindly trust might as-well be God.

I strongly suspect it is just “obviously alive” things that have any sort of subjective experience. But we can’t really prove a negative, so we can thank our coffee machine spirits as a ritual, if we want.
