Summary/Abstract: An interest in understanding the phenomenon of the saint, the author, leads to contemporary forms of false holiness, media gods and hypocrisy. The text wants to show how the ‹Valley of Tears› has turned into the ‹Valley of Sacred Hypocrisy› with all the consequences that change brings. We live in a system of false values. False morality dominates our behavior (just as Nietzsche announced in the Antichrist), and outward appearance has become more important than truth (as Feuerbach announced). In this context, the text questions the Age of self-image, as the age of narcissism, and therefore the ungodly, but also the age that escapes the spiritual dimensions of life.
