the death of God?

Nietzsche's madman declared the death of God; less lamented was that of the devil...and what of the spiritual hierarchy... and monsters? seems there was a massacre really.

but at the very same time, many never believed any of these deaths, and eg angels were, and still are, very popular.

what is serious history of ideas to one, is rejected by the other.
an inclusive history of mankind would need be able to comprehend both.
