And what if your daughter did marry that man with an artificial body?
How will you behave with him, and with your daughter?
If this seems to you impossible, what in the brain is not Turing
emulable (or Turing recoverable by 1-indeterminacy)?
I feel unease with speculation leading to a restriction on the
possible persons. Why not being agnostic at the least?

Leibniz would say, "If there's no God, we'd have to invent him
so that everything could function."

Even those of the past who looked down on the "barbaric" and
"uncivilized" native people believed they could be converted and
saved. You profess that androids (like Data in star trek) is at an
even lower place (than those who looked down on foreigners). What do
we have that machines don't? We are all quarks and electrons, so what
magic are the machines missing?
