Por moi? I will reserve judgment on Bi-man until I see it tomorrow or Thurs, but
my initial reaction from trailers is that this whole topic was dealt with quite
elegantly in ST:TNG with the character of Data. The author of Ecclesiastes was
certainly correct when he said, "There is nothing new under the Sun".
I don't quite understand your question, but I can see the Christ inferences
forming already.... BTW, did everyone catch all of the Christology in "Matrix"?
