Oh, my. It looks like Gil & Adam had some interesting conversations.
Could Dimo look any more pleased with himself than he does in panel 1?

Adam and Lilith are biblical names, although subtly blasphemous ones from the second creation story in Genesis. Although the religious implications of the Spark have only been indirectly hinted at the parting of the Red Sea isn't particularly impressive compared to sinking England or the Oslo crater. I can't see the church approving of humanoid constructs under any conditions though.
ps: You might have to dig through Jewish texts to find Lilith's name though, it is bad enough to have two infallible yet contradictory creation stories in the same religion without advertising too openly about it.

Lillth is the first wife of Adam according to Jewsih forelore which originated in the Middle Ages. She was made from the same earth as Adam. Adam and Lilith Clay Get it? Don't get into serious religous analysis of this comic. This isn't a serious comic to begin with. It isn't discussing religous doctrine. It just makes jokes. Their names are a kind of pun, if you will.

Their names are a kind of pun, if you will. This is actually a very interesting anylisis, not in regards to religion, but regarding their names. I always like analyzing the names of characters, and I have to admit the biblical/jewish connotations of Adam and Lilith's names have never really occured to me. Not to mention the surname of Clay. Thank you for sharing your interpretation. It was nice to read. Also, sorry if this post didn't make any sense. I'm Swedish and kinda drunk.
