Yes. I'd say that is the this generation is acting. For most, their religion is science or economics or celebrity. God is man himself/herself. Nothing else exists.
I'm glad that this is not really the way the universe is, but, unfortunately, many see it that way.

Sounds right so far.
"Where has God gone?" he cried. "I shall tell you. We have killed him - you and I. We are his murderers. But how have we done this? How were we able to drink up the sea? Who gave us the sponge to wipe away the entire horizon? What did we do when we unchained the earth from its sun? Whither is it moving now? Whither are we moving now? Away from all suns? Are we not perpetually falling? Backward, sideward, forward, in all directions? Is there any up or down left? Are we not straying as through an infinite nothing? Do we not feel the breath of empty space? Has it not become colder? Is it not more and more night coming on all the time? Must not lanterns be lit in the morning? Do we not hear anything yet of the noise of the gravediggers who are burying God? Do we not smell anything yet of God's decomposition? Gods too decompose. God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? "
-Nietzsche, The Gay Science

No, because in the begining, there was not man. Man didn't show up for quite a while.

No, that is happening now. I hear and read the phrase "If there is a god, he would (or wouldn't)........." God has told us what his like and what he expects of us through his word and his son.

that or maybe,
Psalm 14:1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
