Hmmm, Yes, it seems man does need an entity to look up to.. to adore and worship as you put it. But why assume that that entity has to be a god or a religion. Let me point out what Richard Holloway is saying here: ".. we should make alliances with poets and protesters, rarely with priests and politicians".
(Ya3ni, in other words: God is dead. Elvis is alive.) :)
And yea sure, the word "man" applies to male, female, and shemale too.
I don't take the word "poet" here literally. "Poets and protesters" are those who stimulate your mind, while "priests and politicians" insist on numbing it with their fixed views on life.

Shady q80,
I remember reading "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" back in college days. Maybe I should get a copy of that book and read it again.
