Part 2/12:
The conversation begins with a commentary on German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche’s declaration that “God is dead.” Nietzsche’s provocative statement underscores a fundamental cultural transformation: the collapse of a shared moral and spiritual anchor. When faith in divine authority wanes, so does the perceived objective foundation of morality and reality. The speaker suggests that many modern individuals, perhaps unconsciously, have stopped truly believing in a moral universe rooted in God, even if they outwardly maintain religious appearances.
