Another interpretation is that "Heirodules" is a grandiose term for
"robots created by the Heiro race". That the Heirogrammates made and
used robots is not necessarily sinful. Kindly, devout missionaries
employ water purifiers. What if the purifiers eventually became so
sophisticated that they were _apparently_ self-aware? What if they were
sophisticated enough to use extra-dimensional technology to improvise
based on their self-propagation programming to ensure the invention of
water purifiers everywhere?
