Original message
Nietzsche said "God is Dead, and We Killed Him."
So with no one in charge, no heaven, no hell, he suggested we make the best of things and create a race of supermen.
Hitler one upped him and said "We already have the supermen! They are the Nordic Germans! Sure they burn real easily, and their attributes are the result of a recessive gene, but hey, I like blonde chicks!"
We all told him to go **** himself and he spent his honeymoon in a bunker, and then was covered with gasoline and set alight. Yay!
Anyway, god is still dead, and we're still on our own but you know what - I never really wanted a race of supermen anyway. As long as we are in charge of our destiny, and as long as we can do whatever we want - why not become the gods we once worshipped?
And by that I don't mean act like Zeus and Apollo, but let's make it nice here. Let's ensure that every man, woman and child on this planet can lead a happy and fulfilling life, as long as we want, as comfortably as we want.
Why not make heaven here?
Why not pursue the real hedonist ideal?
Why not make the world a place worth living for?

We say, "Andy is Dead, and The Freepers Killed Him."

And God says "Nietzsche is dead."

Your ideal is based on a world governed by the fitness to survive. Let your little would-be godlings create their own worlds.

Ooh man, he's deep.

No matter what kind of god Taverner makes himself to be, some other bigger god is going to goose step all over him. If God is dead the 'Might Makes Right'.

Hedonism works really well for the 10% of the population that can be Sybarites, not nearly so well for the 90% that have to toil to provide the goods, services, and other material comforts of which the few wish to avail themselves at leisure.

You got the CalPig's attention. She's a Sybarite. In fact, she rides one whenever she's writing poetry.

I think the potential top primitive's campfire is embarrassing to Skins's island, and so they moved it there so as to hide it, so no one'll see it.
