Nietzsche Was Right

Nietzsche (“God is dead”) was (partially) right.

God as the purposeful existence cannot be the universe, since the universe has no inherent purpose.

The purpose we observe in intelligent existence, is wrongfully projected to matter and energy. This attribution mechanism is called “cognitive bias”.

Purpose is in us, human beings, molecules complexly organized to emerge with consciousness.

Therefore the only purposeful existence (gods, creators, knowledgeable, potent, benevolent, caring) are us, humans. Some are bearded.

Let’s call it pluritheistic. It is a scientific philosophy, but not a religion.

“I am a pluritheist”.
