I think I can probably make my first point to point out you are -not- at home, meaning you don't know if robots here have sentience or souls or anything like that.
I didn't say anything about inanimate objects, and they are not equated with robots.
Robots, for one thing, are animate objects, and properly constructed have programming designed to evolve and change through outside influence. Now, at what point is it not life? Because taking ten of the non-human residents and exposing them to the same outside influence, I would bet that they would all react diffrently.
Not all artificial intelligence is contained in robots either, if you follow science fiction at all, but that doesn't mean it's not equally adaptable and able to evolve.
Your clinging to only organic life is fairly closed-minded. Why does something being alive require a soul? Do trees have souls?
