ATTENTION: IMPORTANT NOTICE

OmniDog Ltd. wishes to announce a recall of its limited edition Christian Line from the human products range.

This product has been found to contain traces of dangerous irrationality. Do not attempt debate this product...to do so may cause extreme frustation and a sense of despair. Carefully deposit the Christian at your nearest church where its central processing unit will be automatically deactivated.

  • We, OmniDog Ltd designed the entire human products range.
  • We, OmniDog Ltd manufactured the entire human products range.
  • We, OmniDog Ltd acknowledge that the entire human products range are produced with a defect technically termed, Subsequential Internal Non-Morality, or more commonly known as SIN, as it is primarily symptomized by the loss of moral judgement of the units.
  • We, OmniDog Ltd is neither responsible, liable or at fault for the SIN of our products.

How can we tell which are the TRUE Christians?

Sorry, I wasn't saying sin was a feature. I was saying freedom was a feature. Sin is a result of the misuse of freedom.

A car can kill, but that's not what it's built to do.

It's a clever conceit you've got, and very amusing; I'm merely claiming it's inaccurate.

Fact:
5 - The cause of SIN is a feature called freedom.

Consider:
Causing SIN is part of the design of the freedom feature.
All units are manufactured with freedom as designed.
The entire human products range suffer from SIN due to its design flaw.
Fact 1 implies OmniDog Ltd is directly responsible SIN.
Therefore, OmniDog Ltd's claim in fact 4 cannot be true.

Fact 2 implies OmniDog Ltd is directly responsible for SIN.
