[MD] God is dead.

[Joseph Bromley]

Hello all.

Nietzsche declared "God is dead" back in the nineteen hundreds, an idea 
which has been slow to catch on and very often misunderstood.

With intellectual ideas such as evolution and gravity coming to the fore in 
mans understanding of life they ate away at the properties of God. God was 
no longer all, the law of nature slowly but surely became great and more 
tangible to man than God. God as little place inintellectual reasoning, for 
the source of all is beyond logical reasoning.
Belief was still strong in god even amongst the scientists until the killing 
fields of the first world war, then men began to question, can there really 
be a god? By the end of the second world war man was beginning to play god. 
The next step is for man to will his own evolution and prove himself a god 
by creating something greater out of himself then he himself is.
None of the europeans who I concider to have scaled the heights since 
Nietzsche, such as Pirsig and Eckhart Tolle, Sid Barret have used the word 
God, godhead yes but not God. Before Nietzsche I can find on examples of 
those who had scaled the heights. The Asians and South Americans seem to 
have always been able to and still can, produce such types of men, this 
appears a new development for European blood, many of whom appear to go mad, 
or are at least labeled as such.

Poems of a Preist.

God.
He who.
Created everything.
Out of himself.
So that everything.
That was, is,
And will be,
Is Himself.
A God without form,
Yet is all form.
A God who creates,
And destroys.
Who brings life,
And death.
Of light,
And Darkness.
All health,
And Illness.
All knowledge,
And all ignorance.
A God of Good.
And Evil.

If such a God where dead,
We would not be here.

As the human body is,
To one of its cells.
So such a God is to man.

How could the human mind,
Grasp and understand,
The totality of existence?
As such, what use is,
The concept God?

The image of a Good, God.
A redundant tool of social evolution.
As a idea refutes the daily world.
We see every day, life is Immoral.

The Christian half diety,
No longer deserves our piety.
We know too much.
Yet understand so little.

If the christian god created the devil, where did the evil in the devil come 
from, if not from god?
If god did not create evil, then god is not the creator of all!

Dark Humour.
News from earth came to the devil, that god had been pronounced dead. At 
first the devil felt that a burden had been lifted from him, his spirit 
soured before becoming lost. He then missed god and started to cry, who was 
there now to bring balance to life?
Then an idea started to rumble deep inside of him, it rumbled and rumbled 
until the devil proclaimed to hell. "I shall go to earth and either discover 
that god still exists or take his place."
Chorus in Hell. "God is dead, long live God."

Regards Joseph Bromley.
