What Nietzsche should have done
Before abstract definition and non-material
symbol became God, prehistory saw God more as an object, or objects, which was good
for the masses to understand. Theological materialism takes back from
the revealed religions their non-objectification of God and makes
Godhood an object once again, a supreme object, or supreme
supermaterial objects.
The possibility of myth once again
presents itself with the evolution to Godhood in the cosmos. Even
the story of creation in Genesis is fading from religion. The ironic
thing is, theological materialism leading to Godhood in the cosmos is
grounded in the material and supermaterial world yet it brings myth
back, which largely came to be lost in the spiritual abstract world of both religion and science.
This is the “trans-valuation” that
Nietzsche should have done, rather than declaring that God was dead
and reaching for art and philosophy to fill the gap. Godhood never died, God was rejected as a material or supermaterial object by religion of all things.
