It's not that God died, it's that you people are too lobotomized by modern life to hear him anymore. You're suffering a total structural crisis of attention because you've let voracious consumption and digital addiction utterly fry your dopamine receptors. You can't even sit in silence for five seconds without pulling out your phone for another hit of information slop. We built a world of constant noise and hypercommunication that actively kills any chance of transcendence because you're all terrified of genuine silence or pain (algophobia), preferring to be anesthetized by endless, shallow stimuli. You're so obsessed with your own "authentic" neoliberal egos, turning even spirituality into just another "mindfulness" productivity hack to optimize your own output that you've completely lost the ability to un-create your noisy self and wait patiently for anything genuinely sacred. Don't ask where God went when you're the one who ghosted him for an algorithm.

I can't believe this is not a copypasta. You should write for the National Review, or some U.S. catholic think tank.

The death of God was an observation of the decline in religiosity, in importance and belief in God in a time long before the information age. It was descriptive and not prescriptive. This paragraph, the tradition it came from, is a sympthom of the death of God; an ever more desperate defense by people who know themselves to be diminishing; An increasing insularity and withdrawal from the world. This sort of elderly admonishment is what the champions of God have been reduced to, over the years. Their battle-cries grow ever fainter.
