God is dead, now what!?

Religion had two purposes, one: it gave people a way to cope with hardship, by believing that there is an invisible man in the sky watching and controlling everything it eased the pressure of life and gave man a way to cope with negative events in their lives.

The second purpose of religion is to give most people a purpose in life, as not all of us are able to compete or leave a legacy behind us, most people purpose was to be decent humans and respect all the rules to earn their ticket to heaven.

As we progressed most of us find it less and less plausible to be-alive in the concept of a deity. Which means that most of us are in a lack of something to help them go through though times as well as a purpose in life.

If the concept of God it is not true this also means that most people were lying to themselves to begin with. It is not that we lost our purpose in life, it is more that we didn't had a purpose to begin with, this is why we had the need for magic, for replacing the reality with fiction in order to sooth our anxiety.

Almost the entire world is going through a crisis, that sadly not too many people are taking it seriously. It is like an extended period of grief and most people haven't passed the denial stage.

They know what the reality is and are aware of the most contradictions and logical inconsistencies, yet they will still label themselves as belonging to a certain religion. They are generally religious just in title they rarely or never do any of the rituals or practice any of the philosophies of their religion, because they are aware of how ineffective those are but they won't still let go of the concept of a deity.

It is basically a collective neurosis through which the wast majority of us go, we are conscious of the reality but still prefer to replace it with fiction to sooth our anxiety.

At the end of the day all what we are certain that we have is the planet we are living on and each others. Which is where all your needs should be fulfilled, including your need for a purpose or support for hard times.

What we need is an upgrade to the way society function, to peak up the slack the religion left behind, or more likely the slack that was always there that we covered with lies instead of doing anything about it. And that happened because there wasn't really any solution to that in the past, as the purpose of denial is to avoid paying attention to the negative whenever you can't escape it in order to remain partially functional.

Your purpose should be found in your direct participation and contribution to society and his systems like for example the economy, and rely on others to help and comfort you whenever you are going through hardship.      

Tragedy has the capacity to bring people together, perhaps one of the biggest tragedy is the death of God. The end is just a different perspective of the beginning, it is now that we need better fairer system and need to relay on each others the most, since aloot of us are starting to realize that no one else is going to help.
