I can't believe no one has pointed this out to you yet, but tyrannicide is always an incomplete act if it doesn't involve killing the tyrant in your head. If you kill an emperor for persecuting you, but then you go about your life persecuting yourself, denying yourself this or that pleasure because the priest class tells you to, groveling to a God-Tyrant for forgiveness for your sins (which 9 times out of 10 are merely the results of natural drives), deriving meaning from an institution whose fundamental insight on the world is that it's fallen and that we can only hope for something better after a lifetime of self-abasement and so on, you are still within the confines of slave morality. There is no "based" Mariana or Aquinas. There are only cowardly theologians who stopped short of where their reason was leading them.

God is dead, but it's up to you to kill him.
