5. God is in everything and everything is in God.
This statement is nonsensical. It is a tautology - it merely says that "everything is everything", but in a few more words. If you think about it, it doesn't actually mean anything, except equating God with the Universe and we have already dealt with that in the first point. This view of God is known as pantheism.

"God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, the murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? That which was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet possessed has bled to death under our knives - who will wipe this blood off us? With what water could we purify ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must not we ourselves become gods simply to seem worth of it? There has never been a greater deed - and whoever shall be born after us, for the sake of this deed he shall be part of a higher history than all history hitherto."
