This great fun

Christianity

...If you need to use the hammer for a specific job, then yes, it would be a good idea to use the hammer in the morning. However, it is ultimately up to you to decide when to use the hammer.

Buddhism

...If you are looking to build something, then yes, you can use a hammer in the morning. However, if you are looking for a deeper spiritual understanding, then the answer would be different...

Islam

No, if you have a hammer, you should use it for its intended purpose...

Not overly convinced by its grasp of religious doctrine though. I asked for guidance on whether I should take out a loan at 5%APR to support my brewery and got back "If you are taking out the loan to support a legitimate business venture, and you are not taking on more than you can handle, then it may be permissible" for Islam. Though I did like it that atheism was the only "faith" to suggest shopping around for the best deal

This is definitely the intended purpose, more of a lighthearted approach to spiritual consultants.

I also really like asking it questions that are clearly out of the scope of spiritual matters, especially if I ask questions about colonizing space and things like that.
