God created us and we created... destruction. To prove it, we go to church every we drink his child's blood... let me be more clear here, l mean all week we do what 'satin' would want us to do. But at the end of the week we clean ourselves with blood bath of a scape goat known as Jesus.
What is the point... of this pretending. Nobody cares about religion and why should they? We have already Killed The God!
My question is where should we create Tomb for our Creator? And Who will be our Next God?

Why is this in philosophy? - it has nothing to do with it - post in R&S or mythology.

God can't lament since it has to be more than human intellect. but I agree that we do drink and bath in The God blood. We are the real parasites... the real Satan's not the fictional one in so called Bible. The greatest of greatest sin is the killing of god. If we have already killed the God than we ourselves can be the next God. Than only problem is then we have to take all the corruption, and garbage like the other Gods before us. Therefore I propose that we Kill these Gods and Myth of morals (religion).

I see three question, I'll answer them in order.
1) Everyone cares about religion, they pretty much have to as it is a natural part of every day life, just by asking this question you've proven that you care very deeply about religion. I would like to point out, however, that personal religious beliefs and organized religion are very different things and that the current state of organized religion is not very good, making it very important to be sure of your own beliefs.
2) I'll assume you mean "God" when you say "Creator". I don't believe God can die, nor can he be entombed even if he could die, the concept contradicts what I believe God to be.
3) Individuals each have their own beliefs, the "next God" for one person is not necessarily the "next God" for anyone else. Personally, my beliefs preclude there ever being a "next God".
Your comments on lamentation and destruction don't make sense to me. If God truly lamented creation he would not have ever let it be, he is outside of time and causation. Also, if God prevented us from destroying anything he would be taking away the precious gift of free will that he gave us, he is not to blame for our bad choices, nor is he to blame for letting us experience the consequences of our bad choices, they are our choices after all.

Where should we create the tomb for our gods? Well, my pick would be the dustbin of history. Alas, gods are far from dead in the minds of those who want to believe.
Who should be our next god? My pick would be the Rational Man. But he would neither want nor have need for worshipers.
I'm atheist myself, but maybe you can get some value out of this quote from another guy who wrote that god is dead:
"Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks--those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest." -- Friedrich Nietzsche, "Thus Spoke Zarathustra"

I think I understand your feeling about the hypocrisy in religion. True, it turns me off to see people committing all sorts of acts against God only to seek absolution and cleanse themselves at the weekly mass only to do it all over again. That being said, (and I am an Agnostic) I used to think that was my single reason for leaning towards Atheism but then I realized that regardless of what other people do, it's what YOU do that matters. If there really is a God and a judgement day coming, those people who 'faked' it through their lives will be outed and dealt with accordingly. We cannot control how other people will live their lives, whether they are religious or not.
As for caring about religion, I think most people have a desire to feel that something better is out there for them. I think they may then have a sense of purpose that otherwise escapes them. I don't feel that need, but I don't care if others do.
I don't think that there will ever be an end to religion as we know it as there will always be creation myths as long as people need something to believe in. As for our 'next God', who knows? There are already so many as it is.

Sorry you feel this way. Seriously. Yes, Jesus died. But here's the good news, He came back to life!
There is only one God, you nor I can create one. You either accept the One who IS or you don't. Freewill..........
