Yes, whole books have been written on the Divine Pathos, not the least of which is the bible

An unfeeling 'god' is not a God that would die for His creation, it is only a 'force'.

Yes, some people want a “force”, so “it” can be with them. A personal God, talking face to face, like with Moses for example, must be too frightening. A personal relationship with Jesus is the essence of Christianity, but obviously many don’t believe or understand it.

God died?

You mean that for 2 1/2 days the Universe was without God?
