Bob Dylan has never made such an assertion (that God is dead), but he did comment in an interview a long time ago that when he saw a headline questioning "Is God Dead?" on a major publication, that it was a clear signal to him that society was lapsing into decadence...or something worse. He did not regard it as a statement indicating anything but abysmal ignorance.Which interview, and where you can find it, I do not know. It was prior to his "Christian" period, that's all I remember.
