There will be no fire-death.

It is not that the person who does not believe God exists would gain the upper hand, since he would still belong to the old plane as negative movement. But, on the new plane, it is possible that the problem now concerns the one who believes in the world, and not even in the existence of the world but in its possibilities of movements and intensities, so as once again to give birth to new modes of existence, closer to animals and rocks. it may be that believing in this world, in this life, becomes our most difficult task, or the task of a mode of existence still to be discovered on our plane of immanence today. This is the empiricist conversion (we have so many reason not to believe in the human world; we have lost the world, worse than a fiancée or a god). The problem has indeed changed.

Should we not be unsettled that there is a rock hurtling towards the earth, given the name of a destroyer god from Egypt? Should we not be entirely shaken that, indeed, we are not unsettled? To whom or to what have we given our faith that keeps us so calm? It would be an error to assume that because we are so unsettled, that we really do lack a belief in the possibility for this world, that there is a lack of belief. On the contrary, there is so much belief couched in so much sentimentality. Within our current ideology (What shall we name it? With what shall we capture it? Capital! - surely.) we believe in deregulation, that the more money is freed to repeat itself in a creatio ex nihilo the human person will be free to puruse their leisure time free of suffering. We want not to work, not to toil, not to suffer. For suffering is always a being-with, or more preciously, a becoming-imperceptible (the Kinght of Faith). Suffering, in what it carries from Latin and in our common English meaning, signifies that we are participating in the movement of life. We do not believe in life nor its movements, we believe in the false transcendent of money repeating itself, of value divorced from the world. If we were to lose this world we would not lose value, we would not lose the timeless. Or so we believe.

Since we do not see a desperate movement to stop this destruction and since we do not also see despair, should we not then come to the conclusion that the people truly have faith?
