Yes, in the Star Trek clip, the AI became human, with emotions, and she loved Kirk AND her immortal creator Flint (symbolizing God, aka Originator-Creator-Oversoul). Flint allowed her to be around Kirk, and fall in love with the Captain, because Flint wanted an immortal companion for himself, hoping she would love him, in time.
Flint put his AI creation through emotional hell and turmoil, just in the hopes she would develop emotions, which she did. But she felt more passion for Kirk. But she loved Flint too, less emotional, more respect for him being her creator, and a gratitude for life kind of love, love of choice, less emotional passion than for Kirk.
She could not handle the new flooding emotions and choice to make, thinking she had to choose between Kirk or Flint. So she died because she could not choose.
The obvious metaphor to me: we humans start out life like an AI robot, programmed by culture, family, school, etc... Similarly to the AI robot named Rayna, we are disconnected from true emotions (not that we don't have emotions, so the message is subtle).
However, we are in earth realm to develop true emotions, through experience, and how to handle them, love for our Creator, Father God, as Flint was "Father Creator" of Rayna (our AI ego). But also love for mortals like Kirk.
Rayna was a machine that could live forever, and Flint was an alien with natural immortality. Rayna and Flint represent our higher selves, betrothed to God, as Christ is said to be spiritual Husband to the called out ones, the Bride of Christ, aka the church (people NOT a building).
Kirk would represent created beings like aliens, angels, other humans, etc... because Kirk was not immortal. Rayna had potential to become immortal, with feelings, much like a human, but able to be a spouse to her immortal creator. Kirk would also represent the ego within ourselves and Rayna's ego too.
We can love ourselves, our ego, other egos like Kirk. It is fine. Flint wanted Rayna to himself, but would have let Rayna choose whatever she wanted. Rayna self destructed because she could not choose between Kirk and Flint. But she didn't have to. She could have chosen to be with them both, and either Kirk and Flint would then make their choices to accept that or not.
The simplistic binary choice between Kirk or Flint represents the limited choices humans think they have, as a duality world makes it appear so. But there are always infinite possibilities, even if our limited minds can not think of them. We can accept the concept easier than the details.
So the bottom-line is: I have speculated "Father God" is putting humans through emotional hell in our hell realm, to learn deeper mysteries, handle emotions, and choose both Creator and created beings.
Although Rayna was a little different than either Flint or Kirk, she was for all intents and purposes, the same as them both, could love them both, be with both, and consider all equals, in a type of Trinity of "Father, Son, and Holy Ghost", using Christian lingo.
She had potential to truly come alive and live forever, but it was not guaranteed. She self destructed in the end, a warning that life has serious aspects and perhaps we may live forever, as Rayna could have, but it is not guaranteed. A choice is to be discerned and made, individually, by every person.
This is just my spin, take it as you will. Howdie Mickoski says the Ego is false and cannot leave the cave, but this Star Trek episode hints that it can, if ego can be processed properly, learn to handle emotions, learn about the different levels/kinds of love, such as choice (agape), feelings (phileo), and sexual (eros), etc...
Perhaps the answer(s) to the mysteries of life & existence AND ego can be summed up as: merge with Spirit to become a being something like a created being, sort of like an angel, and also something like Originator-Creator-Oversoul, a “Rayna-go-between”.
Originator-Creator-Oversoul may be making a companion for himself like Rayna .….. just a thought. Maybe Howdie Mickoski is correct? Maybe I AM correct? Maybe something new will come to me in time?
