Man would just find something else to worship or fear. With their gods fallen and faith shattered people would seek something to take their place, most likely something alot more concrete.
Sigh. Even with all the explaining you did, it still seems that the first few people didn't get your point. Luckily I do, and I applaud you for trying such a fragile idea. I think you're right, the world would probably fall apart.unabomberman said:
However, that being said, would it not have positive effects too? Say, for example, less conflict?
this is a silly topic.. a hypothetical question that is not only improbable but quite literally impossible. Whoever started this thread must have only done so out of some silly sense of boredom or has taken one to many highschool philosophy courses and thinks that irrational hypothetical questions somehow relates into musing philosophical. It doesn't... stupid thread.

I would finally be able to tell people i told you so.
Hopefully, people would start believing more in science. No more of this creationism crap. Then there would be no divine power telling us what is right and wrong. eople would be able to decide for themselves instead of being influenced by ancient tets that have lost most of their meaning

I think the world would quickly decline. I'm sure some of the more smart do-gooder optimistic types (dicks) would try to unite and rule the world under a kingdom of man, but they would quickly be ignored then eaten by the powerhungry less intelligent asshole types (Kim Jong-Il and my mail man).
First, a state of great denial, then life would go on as normally as before, if not better. People will, however, find something else to belittle and murder each over, if they can't have God.
What happens to me? I go on living happily without the ball and chain of infantile superstition, and have a greater appreciation of this life and the beauty of the natural world.
Everyone would go insane and kill him/herself just to see what's on the other side. If anything. 
Yellow. It's me again.
I'd just like to say that I have read every post up to this point and that I do appreciate all of them very much. I found what has been written in this little exercise to be very interesting and informative, but more than that, I found it even more interesting and informative what hasn't been written.
interestingly enough people refused to engage in the excercise, which is fine, and among them some even got outwardly annoyed, and dare I say just a wee bit belligerent. Why? Is it stupid to just ask a question? Is it so obvious that this topic is not to be touched for fear of offending someone's sensibilities? Is this kind of topic just unbecoming of a properly behaved forum member?
Ones may find this thing silly and beneath them, and others may not; but still, I was curious and felt like asking.
People should just calm down a little and stop being so defensive.

My day to day stuff wont change. Bet there will still be loons out there that get on there knees and muter to them self's.
I'm not sure if there being defensive or trying to inspire aggrivation....
I enjoy some dismissive quips, JimmieDean's for example. It's Soft core trolling in my oppinion Yes I know the futility of stating in my oppinion during a post but that doesn't nullify my entire post just a utilization of a transversive phrase, yes I'm in dire need of a spell check. Any Solutions, this isn't really on topic so I'll Get back on by saying that I believe The Red States Of the US would be very enraged and cults would probably start, Everywhere. Which connects a few topics you all have been talking about, The "Nobody Wants to stand alone." And "people want to be subserviant to somthing" It's a fact that Not everyone can be an "Alpha"
I'm tempted to say I'm too lazy to catagorize my Idea Spluge up there but you have probably asertained that by now, feel free to pick this appart I'll feel elated that you put much more though into you Critique then I have into this postlayful Emoticon:
Btw Back there I was asking for a Spell Check site or Tool Bar or W.E. For Fire Fox, Also Each of you who have Actually Contributed eliquently & sincerely Here's a cookie and my applause.
HOLY BOOK OF SCIENCE you guys reply fast, To the poster just above me you mean metally Imbalenced ppl, they are everywhere, sadly. Sadly that they arn't able to share our Advance and sane though processes (I'm never fully sarcastic, but there is quite a bit of it...)

God is dead is the idea that god or religion is no longer a basis for morality thus most people will struggle to control themselves (your original post) the ubermench is the one who survives the period by creating thier own set of values based on human ideals its an aditional topic but very relatedunabomberman said:
