| | Friedrich Nietzsche - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Nietzsche attacked Christian religion as it was represented by churches and institutions for what he called its "transvaluation" of healthy instinctive values. |  | | It is important, for Nietzsche, to distinguish between the religion of Christianity and the person of Jesus. |  | | Nietzsche is also well-known for the statement "God is dead". |

| | Friedrich Nietzsche |
 | | Nietzsche refers to this higher mode of being as "superhuman" (übermenschlich), and associates the doctrine of eternal recurrence -- a doctrine for only the healthiest who can love life in its entirety -- with this spiritual standpoint, in relation to which all-too-often downhearted, all-too-commonly-human attitudes stand as a mere bridge to be crossed and overcome. |  | | In the third essay, Nietzsche focusses upon the ascetic ideals typical of the social representatives of art, religion and philosophy, and he offers a particularly scathing critique of the priesthood: the priests are allegedly a group of weak people who shepherd even weaker people as a way to experience power for themselves. |  | | To a similar end, Nietzsche's doctrine of eternal recurrence (sections 285 and 341) was formulated to draw attention away from all worlds other than the one in which we presently live, since eternal recurrence precludes the possibility of any final escape from the present world. |

 | | Later in life Nietzsche addressed Cosima Wagner as "Princess Ariadne" in his letters to her, and declared that the author of them is the god Dionysus. |  | | Rejecting his father's faith, Nietzsche became a lifelong rebel against Christianity. |  | | John Stuart Mill's liberal democratic humanism was for him a target for scorn and he called Mill "that blockhead." His announcement of the death of God can be interpreted religiously or atheistically: "God is dead. |

 | | Not by God, whose funeral Nietzsche observed ("What are these churches now if they are not the tombs and sepulchres of God?"). |  | | Too many interpreters of Nietzsche have failed to see that his "will to power" refers to an inner power, a power to affirm oneself, to be what Emerson meant by "self-reliant." This is the positive, the constructive aspect of Nietzsche's philosophy that complements its nihilistic aspect. |  | | His father was a Lutheran minister whose character may help explain why religion was one of the features of his culture that he found most offensive. |

| | The Pillars of Unbelief - Nietzsche |
 | | Nietzsche call “Zarathustra” the new Bible, and told the world to “throw away all other books; you have my “Zarathustra.” It is intoxicating rhetoric, and it has captivated adolescents for generations. |  | | But the fate of Nietzsche's god Dionysus was soon to overtake Nietzsche himself; as Dionysus was literally torn apart by the Titans, supernatural monsters of the underworld, Nietzsche's mind was to be cracked asunder by his own inner Titans. |  | | The center of Nietzsche's philosophy is always the same: He is as centered on Christ as Augustine was, only he centered on Christ as his enemy. |

| | Nietzsche: Beyond Good and Evil |
 | | No matter what the method, as Nietzsche points out in his first section, the belief was always that grounding knowledge and morality in truth was possible and valuable, that the activity of seeking to ground morality was conducive to a fuller good life, individually and communally. |  | | Hence, central to Nietzsche's vision of how the best human beings must live their lives is the insistence that individuals must create for themselves a new language, fresh metaphors, original self-descriptions. |  | | Nietzsche begins his critique here by challenging that fundamental assumption: Who says it is better for human beings to seek for the truth? |

 | | Without the former and accepted faith based standards society is threatened by a nihilistic situation where peoples lives are not particularly constrained by considerations of morality or particularly guided by any faith related sense of purpose. |  | | This same God however, before becoming dead in men's hearts and minds, had provided the foundation of a "Christian-moral" defining and uniting approach to life as a shared cultural set of belief fully within which people had lived their lives. |  | | Led out and quietened, he is said to have retorted each time: "what are these churches now if they are not the tombs and sepulchres of God?" |

 | | Nietzsche's assessment, of both the antiquity and resultant impedements presented by the ethical and moralistic teachings of the world's mono-theistic religions, eventually led him to his own dualistic epiphany. |  | | However, in the Anti-Christ, Nietzsche has a remarkably high view of Jesus, claiming the scholars of the day fail to pay any attention to the man, Jesus, and only look to their construction, Christ. |  | | Nietzsche may have contracted syphilis as a student (some think this was the cause of his madness) and endured periods of illness during his adult life, which forced him to resign from the University of Basel. |
