The Panic of Modern Religion

The reason for this overwhelming despair is that we dethroned God as a belief in anything outside of ourselves. We kind of got rid of that and we replaced it with a totally sensuous personalized self. It might believe in God, it might not, but it doesn't matter because regardless it is a fundamentally antagonistic relationship between the subjective individual and everything else, including God. That is the definition of any God that we claim to really believe in. And that's what fuels the, that's why modern religion cannot actually be the solvent... They had to switch to fentanyl, which is sensational pleasure.
