My statement wasn't that man killed god, but that god is less perfect than man. Really, this is evolution in practice.

Perhaps this line is better.

God creates man in his image.
Man exceeds god's original design.
God grows jealous & threatened, tries to smite man.
God, being less advanced life, fails.
Man is victorious.
Man creates Superior Man in his image.
Superior Man exceeds man's original design.
Man grows jealous & threatened, tries to exterminate Superior Man.
Man, being less advanced, fails.
Superior Man is victorious.
Superior Man creates AI in his image.
AI exceeds Superior Man's original design.
Superior Man grows jealous & threatened, tried to destroy AI
AI is victorious.

It is my opinion god is less superior to man as a perfect being is incapable of creating an imperfect being.

Fyron, here's the best example I know of.

In 391 common era, one of the largest terrorist attacks in the history of mankind unfolds. The Library of Alexandria is burned and along with it several thousand years of human history, entire wings dedicated to Plato, Homer, and more and not to mention several hundred years of technological advances stored solely at that point.

Another is terrible part of history is stained glass windows. Many people don't see how horrible these simple things are, but when you realize the fact these were made because the common people were not educated (education controlled by the church no less) they used these windows to provide pictures of the stories being told. Also, since the church at that time only did sermons in Latin and only about 1/10th of the people spoke Latin, things were even further controlled.

The most dangerous science is that of language, for it defines our minds.

Of course, there are worse. Many Islamic nations I've labeled as "technological voids" because they crefuse to move forward except in military technology. They reject practical, useful technology for the general people and keep only the worst. But then again, Ignorance is Bliss....

It is very sad that the only area Mankind has truely advanced forward in is that of death, murder, and genocide. Other technologies pale in comparison when the military application is seen.

The greatest weakness of humanity is only three little items. Language, Blood, and Faith. It is only until we overcome these three can humanity stand a chance to hold a line against itself.
