Abstract [eng] The article starts with the discussion of the technology used to kill God. The consideration of the role of the higher human being and that of the status of last men follows. The strong and the weak nihilism as indicators of culture's destruction are distinguished. Considerable attention is paid to signs of apocalyptic culture and features of the times of Homo Consumens. The paper closes with the discussion of the problem whether the death of modern human being is acceptable.
