Can you kill God? Carl Jung answers

#shorts
The great philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche said ''God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him.'''. Which raises the questions does god exist? And if he does exist even as an abstract idea can we kill him as Nietzsche declared? The famous psychologist Carl Jung is a massive fan of Nietzsche and he has an incredible answer to those questions that will surprise you!

Great content man. I think I've watched it all. I see "God" as a all encompassing force, it's within us, and through nature. But i don't believe it is subject to human emotions, like anger or wrath. It's life itself

Then using the word God is synonymous with "whatever occupies your mind the most" which makes the term "god" superfluous and meaningless. When most people throughout history and today think of God, they think of an entity separate from humanity with agency and consciousness, not a term for whatever we choose to focus our lives on and I think this is a deceptive use of language that theists/transtheists use to justify their epistemologically unjustifiable claims about reality. It's the same when someone say they oppose the concept of worship and theists proclaim "but you are always worshipping something, like money or famous people". No. worship is a presise activity where you are doing rituals to elevate whatever entity you want to praise. Being concerned about, thinking a lot about, being interested in - these phrases are not synonymous with worship. It's religious gaslighting, removing the original meaning of a word in order to try to force you into their worldview by playing semantic games. Desperately trying to define God into existence because you know the evidence is lacking.
