Do you think anything like that can happen in real life (at any time)? Why?
Do you think all people would agree with it concerning the revolution of religions and culture?

I think it's possible. We're living in a world today where so many things are continually switching to electronic. I work on a military base and we have a finance office that is reponsible for addressing problems with all of our financial questions (personal pay, government credit card, travel vouchers we use to claim things such as airline tickets to our next station so we get reimbursed and daily allotments for travel days if we're en route somewhere, etc) and will soon be closing to be replaced by an electronic system. Everything will be done by computer now. With everything else in soceity being simplified as well and our insatiable need to create the next "gadget" I believe it is a possiblity that we may be leading ourselves down a road where something like that could happen. Like the movie said (or something like it) "Robots don't feel/think, they calculate." It may work in a surgeons operating room, but out in the world? If it gets out of hand or things, we as humans, don't calculate arise we could get ourselves into something nasty.

sure it can happen in real life...these people saying it can't are completely blind...if you really take a look at society, you can already see that machines do dictate some things to us instead of us to them...to the extent that the movie exemplifies, that is very, very far into the future but still quite possible...there could be a point where artifical intelligences that have destroyed us, their creators, and evolved independently from us are able to do what we, ourselves, could not...such as manipulate time and space, for example...

Yes.
One day, mankind will create a machine that can think for itself and is self-aware. Why would we do this? Just to see if it's possible, and because someone is going to want to be the one to do it first.

SPOILERS....It could happen but they basically stole the whole premise of the Terminator movies with the whole "Machines turning on Humans" But I really don't see something like that happening...if it does it will be the far far future

The famous book by Asimov is much more realistic and very thoughtful, if you liked the movie the book is recommended.

No, it's impossible.
