The question of God runs through the work of Juan Re Crivello more as an open wound than as a resolved dogma. A reader of the Bible since childhood, he writes not from comfortable faith nor from militant atheism, but from an inherited tension: that of a Nietzsche read «by a child who had first read the Bible» (The Portable Homeland), which means that the death of God does not lead to the nihilism of the superman, but to an exodus, to the search for a portable homeland when transcendent certainties no longer remain.

In *The Liquid Village*, he revisits the history of the gods—Aten, Amun—to show that behind every religious reform there is always discipline and power; and in *Sacred Town*, quoting Mrozek, he observes with bitter irony that “we have deposed God and wander in search of opportunities for Morality”: the spiritual void of liquid society, where neither the Pope nor institutions can sustain any sense of meaning anymore.

His honesty, as studies indicate, lies in not resolving the enigma: he has neither the certainty of the believer nor the consolation of transhumanist progress, only the Pascalian wager without any guarantee that there is anyone on the other side.

Fragments on which he relies

Akhenaten carried out the most ambitious radical reform of the era, changing the cult of the god Aten, mediated by the priests, to a cult of the god Amun, in which only the pharaoh stood between the god and the believers. Why bring up this topic, some readers might ask, this business of gods on a Monday? Perhaps it’s because we sometimes forget, caught up in our contemporary world, that the world has had gods, now has religions with one god, and millions of atheists. Wikipedia says: «Therefore, the reinforcement of authority r…

Santiago Fernandez Rodriguez The African god of Voodoo greatly likes natural feminine curls; in my case, backcombing will not give rise to any religious practice. Rather, I should return to my years of credulity and pray again to some god to work the miracle of the rebirth of hair on my clear and wide forehead (which extends from the brow ridge to the tonsure or crown). However, just a few minutes ago, a young and beautiful colleague assured me that those of us who are «hairless» are in fashion and tend to be more popular (not to the…

This philosopher is relevant again, his stubborn reflection that the present and vitality always foretell freedom, opposed to those liquidators who trade in ideology. Those who dream of incredible worlds full of health, new societies, or unhealthy love no longer find a place. Our society is incredibly selfish, and it has destroyed the dogmas of the future that rest on healing syrups. I will not insist that the Quran, Christianity, Communism, Nazism, and successive human creations (including the…

I reached the cloud where God gave talks. It was a calm morning; you could even see the bottom of the cloud waves and imagine a blue planet And distant. In this void of the Afterlife, God receives thousands of souls every day. I passed through here some time ago; I still remember that unique feeling. If you go to Hell, you imagine a ball of fire, and if you deduce that Heaven is near, you imagine a certain respite from your troubled life. It was time for a rest; I knew it because I visited him some days to chat about worldly things, or about…
