Comment on Father sues Google, claiming Gemini chatbot drove son into fatal delusion
Ulrich@feddit.org 1 day agothe priest rationalizes two completely different answers based on the way the question is posed.
No, the priest is answering 2 different questions:
- Is it okay to smoke, to which the answer is always going to be no.
- It is okay to pray, to which the answer is always going to be yes.
What else they’re doing doesn’t impact the question.

Those aren’t the same questions from the original post. You’ve omitted half the information given to the priest in each question.
Both questions, in their entirety, deal with smoking and praying. The subject is smoking and praying. You’ve reframed this as a question about smoking, and a question about praying and that was never the case.

I’ve omitted half of the part that doesn’t matter, as I explained in the comment. It doesn’t matter what comes after them, the answers will always be the same.

Why would the answer be no? Who cares if you smoke while doing a cartwheel? Who said the priest would forbid such a thing?
In both situations, a man is asking about the propriety of praying while inhaling the smoke from a cigarette. That’s vital information.
The information does matter to the smoker and the priest. We’re not teasting these statements for validity and we’re not making our own judgements. We’re examining why the priest’s answer might have changed. That’s all.

Who cares if you smoke while praying? Not the priest. That’s the point.
