Do any of you feel it is possible for our conscience to be allocated to a machine to survive our bodily death? Obviously, if this is indeed possible, the person would have to be alive during the transfer. An instant, unexpected death, will vaporize our consciousness into the "ether" never to return. Personally, im 100% content with my awareness ending at death. When i'm gone, i'm gone.

No. 
I suppose it could be possible with a much more advanced technology to possibly download our memories and such to a computer, but it's not like 'you' would be in the computer or something.

God would be furious with this encroachment into his area of control.

I don't care about offending God after He showed up late to my wedding. Considering himself free of sin, he shamelessly blamed his tardiness on bad directions I provided to Him.

Why bother with a machine? Start a religion, and millions of  idiots will interpret your conscience as an excuse to do things to others that they wouldn't want done to themselves.
