What happens to gods that nobody loves any more?

They live out their failed existences

as bosses in video games.

Until we vanquish those too..

Your question: "What happens to gods that nobody loves any more? Update : Gods like Zeus, Thor, Osiris, Qetzlcoatl... is there some spiritual retirement home for obsolete deities?"

Your premise:

There exist or once existed gods in the real world that no one loves any more.

Your evidence:

Nothing.

Your conclusion:

There exist or once existed gods in the real world that no one loves any more.

Your modus operandi:

Begging the question, "Please believe without proof that there exist or once existed gods in the real world that no one loves any more."

Given that the premise has no real-world component, the question is irrational.

Nothing happens to things that do not exist, never existed, never will exist.

In religion people believe what they want to be true, typically culturally acquired delusional claims.

A history of human thought shows that although people may believe they have acquired insight into the nature of reality and the nature of sentient experience, often what they report to be reality is a reflection of their conformity to unwarranted opinion or randomly constructed delusional schemas without any objective reality checks.

It is our natural inclination to acquire behaviors including cognitive and perceptual schemas by doing what we observe others doing, even from what we can construct mentally as models of what others might do. There is a neural basis for this, but even though such behavior is observable, until quite recently it was not known why such behavior occurs.

Tired, old, washed-up gods never truly die, Brother Paul, they just gather together at Valhalla to feast with Odin for eternity.

They still exist for anyone who may want to connect with them, and they exist in their own spiritual realm.

If there is a god of War (Mars/Ares) and someone loves fighting and wars, then they have that god/entity with them whether they realize it or not.

I don't know about gods except they are made from materials my God created so they wither with time, or their myth goes on. However, my God still exists despite the fact that there are people who don't love him and they seem to be the ones talking about him and wondering about him the most.

What happens to bullies who openly mock people online? They get hunted down.

They just crumble up and dry up and blow away like the rest of us

They become mythology.
