There's also those who believe we may one day create a race of artificially intelligent androids, automatons that are sentient, that is "self aware".  freak out

I fear the same thing, and to be honest, the way things are going, one day it might actually happen.
Whenever I watch The Terminator (the first one), I never really think of it as a sci-fi; think about it:

1) He has a metal skeleton, these skeletons can be built but for the moment they wouln't be able to walk, as walking robots are still at a very early stage.
2) He has a chip that enables him to think, even if it's artificial it is actually possible to enable inannimate objects to think now.
A good example of this are military missiles, or even the AI in a video game; if you play games like Super Smash Bros Melee against the computer you'll find that it will try to kill you. Now, couldn't other things be programmed to kill as well?
3) He has flesh and organs created especially for cyborgs.
It's recently been possible to clone/create human organs, what if such things could be implemented into a robot?

In Japan, robots are becoming more intelligent and human-looking everyday. I give it 50 years until we have a perfect cyborg.
The rate at which things are evolving this should be perfectly posssible.
Don't you agree Packmule?
'The void is that which stands right in the middle between this and that. The void is all-inclusive, having no opposite — there is nothing which it excludes or opposes. It is living void, because all forms come out of it and whoever realizes the void is filled with life and power and the love of all things' - Bruce Lee
