Reforming the understanding of God, not killing Godhood

When we say, "Culture, that is to say the Gods," as Nietzsche put it, we are talking about the foundation of traditional civilizations, none of which formed without a base in religion. And what if your culture is increasingly not being defined by the Gods? Your culture is probably dying or dead, in spite of Nietzsche.

The problem is, as Nietzsche again pointed out, religion has represented the denaturalization of moral values. Virtue was made wholly abstract, which meant turning ones back on the world---philosophy did the same thing beginning with Socrates.  But religion (and philosophy) can recover and naturalize moral values when Godhood is seen as the zenith of material/supermaterial evolution.

This is accomplished not by trying to radically murder God, as Nietzsche did, but by reforming or revitalizing the understanding of God---that is, by seeing the Inward God, the Father Within, as only the first symbolic experience of the real Godhood reached in Outward evolution. The wisdom of conservatism can prevail in a reformed understanding of God.

And turning to Western versions of Eastern religions is not reform, it is regression back to the original non-material religions. Evolution, not merely involution, needs to be emphasized, biological and superbiological evolution to real Godhood...This is the future of religion. Civilization, that is to say the Gods, can then be reclaimed, including evolutionary science.
