The Christian Mythos is constantly altering its paradigm to fit comfortably with the modern developments of the common knowledge. Examples of this are: the observation of the solar system, dinosaurs, Galapagos, anthropian-artifacts, genetics, et cetera.
What Nitzsche meant by the whole 'god is dead' phrase is that the superstitious behaviours of the religious masses were no longer socially necessary... they soon had become tools for social and psychological control, encouraging the detachment of the minds of the people from current technological progress and from a possible collective consciousness.
