I find it annoying that there is no SEX god. I know that there are adjacent gods that also involve sex but not a god of only sex. Who do I pray to if I want to lose my virginity and have lots of sex?
The entire section on Religion is very based, probably my favorite part overall. He talks about how our understanding of the gods changes with ourselves; so for example sacrifices are part of the process of the gods becoming “more human” because the priest is acting in their stead and the people eat most of the food. This process plays out too in drug cults, the Bacchantes etc - you’re consuming the gods in those rites. As the ethical society breaks down the gods are sublated completely and you end up with comedy. This death of the gods leads to man seeing God as man - Christianity. So on Hegel’s telling Christianity has more to do with Greek and Latin comedy than it did the ot. Lots of cool shit in this part.
