What is with Hegel's religious views? Does he not believe in like Jesus? Sounds like he thinks God is just a state of Spirit and not like some all powerful creator

Hegel identified both the difference between Spirit and God, or the Absolute, as well as the unity of Man(life i.e spirit) within God. He exists in his culmination of advancement(and devancement) both in contrast and ever searching unity with God, as well as his own 'present' existence which can only be eternal and so the absolute.

Truth, or morality (Good, Evil) in Hegel's view is the result of a being in, and not in, accordance with itself - for Evil is falsity and Good is Truth, and Truth is a being in accordance with its own nature. Hegel is not a dualist, and Good and Evil are not eternal concepts. One can argue whether Christianity is truly a monistic or dualistic doctrine however Hegel is irrefutably Christian.

Reminder that it is impossible to successfully remove the spiritual/supernatural/phenomenological element from Hegel's dialectic. Marx didn't succeed in doing this, he only THOUGHT he did. Dialectical materialism does not actually exist. Socialism/communism has a spiritual component, which is why so many of its adherents for 150+ years have essentially treated it like a religion.

There is nothing supernatural about it. Only the ideal is real
