Nietzsche accused Kant and Schopenhauer of being Christians disguised as philosophers. And that Kant put the cart before the horse by building a philosophy around predetermined conclusion. What probably he didn't realise is that he, Nietzsche, himself set out to destroy Christian morality and to rescue humanity from the clutches of god-consciousness as a priori judgements. Essentially he was on the Left even before he articulated his thoughts. So yes, I agree with the top comment here.

I've always felt the thought of eternal return busted him. He grasped that living that way as courageous fortitude meant (as Jung would say) an anhendoian situation where the psychological opposite is cathected into reality: thus amor fati became for him the flowering consciousness of a self-pity buried deep within the etiology of 'noble valuations', as the refusal to pity is unveiled as a subliminal species of ressentimént!

Nietzsche is completely correct about the Protestant reformation being the thing which ruined Europe. For centuries the true and beautiful metaphysics was slowly subverting the Catholic church and restoring the old ways back to Europe, during the Renaissance this process was being accelerated, and then the Protestant reformation set us back a millennium. I feel the same thing happened in Eastern Europe, as they were reforming Eastern Orthodoxy and it was cut short but the Communists

Wonderful series, thanks! One minor criticism I have relates to the final part of the concluding video, where you describe Nietzsche's unfinished magnum opus as something he would want to be, or to be characterized as, "a neat system." Although his project was colossal and radical in its potential/partial character, he knew by long before that point that "systems" or systematic thinking of any kind in philosophy, psychology, philology, or in virtually any other field of (so-called scientific, so-called) knowledge (at least in the "human sciences") are a non-starter, and this partly on account of the theologically-stinking implications that tend to come with the imagined pursuit or possession of some closed or absolute systematic knowledge or interpretation of...well, anything really. I wouldn't be surprised if he referred to the transvaluation as an enterprise of system-building or systematizing, but can't imagine he'd want to call it that except perhaps mockingly or self-satirically. Or as Freddy Nitch himself puts it in the Twilight of the Idols: Ich mißtraue allen Systematikern und gehe ihnen aus dem Weg. *Der Wille zum System ist ein Mangel an Rechtschaffenheit.* [I distrust all systematicists and keep out of their way. The will to system is a lack of personal integrity.] Please excuse the improvised translation---'Rechtschaffen' strikes me as an especially tricky one to decipher. Thanks again.

He believes there was one Christian. And he died on the cross. It is the religion of Christianity and its morals that he is against.

But when Nietzsche posited a physics of Eternal Recurrence (WP #1003; Kaufman ed.) for a metaphysic of Will to Power he made "the infinite" into an abstract veridical reality that leads intuitively to the concept of divinity. 2nd reason for his madness: the emptiest, most definitionally unreal of mathematical abstractions becomes a key idea in his version of reality. A paradoxicality which also condones intuitive religiosity.

Ever heard of "The Grail Message by Abdrushin" written by a German (called Oskar Ernst Bernhardt) in the early 20th century. He later moved to Austria and gathered a group around him. He said he was a messenger of God (Abd-ru-shin means "servant of God") to anounce the Judgement days which has already begann as he anounced the message in the early 20th century. But unfortunately he was put under house arrest by A. Hitler for spreading the message of God. Here a taste of his writings in one of his lectures called "The Antichrist": "It is sad that until now not even the churches have known where to look for this Antichrist, although it has already been active among all of mankind for so long. With only a little alertness they should have recognized it! Who can possibly act in a more anti-Christian manner than those who at the time fought against Christ Himself and finally even murdered Him! Who could have revealed themselves in a worse and more obvious way as being the Antichrist! They were the leaders and representatives of earthly religion; the true teaching of God, as revealed in and through the Son of God, did not fit into their own structure. Indeed, the true Message of God could not be reconciled with it, since the structure set up by the earthly priests and dignitaries was aimed primarily at earthly influence, earthly power and expansion. They proved quite clearly thereby that they were servants of the human intellect, which is directed solely towards earthly knowledge and earthly power, and is hostile and obstructive to anything that is beyond earthly comprehension! Now since God as well as the spiritual remain completely outside the range of earthly intellectual knowledge, it is actually the intellect which is clearly the only real obstacle! Thus, by its nature, it is opposed to all that is Divine and all that is spiritual! And therefore, as a logical consequence, so are all those men who accept their intellect as being the highest and best thing, seeking to build upon it alone! The religious leaders of those days were afraid of losing influence among the people through the enlightenment of the Son of God. As everyone today knows, this was the main reason for the slander they sought to spread against Christ and ultimately for the execution of the Son of God. They nailed Him to the cross as a blasphemer of the very God Who had sent Him to bring enlightenment, and Whose servants they professed to be! How little did they really know this God and the Will of Him Whom they pretended to serve, in whose honor and earthly defense they, however... murdered this Son of God, the Divine messenger! Whoever expects clearer proof cannot be helped; for there is nothing more in opposition to Christ, the Son of God, and His Words! And indeed Antichrist signifies the fighter against Christ, against man’s redemption in God’s Message. Behind this, however, stands Lucifer himself as the Antichrist in person! He is the one who was able to raise his head through men! He, the only real enemy of God! He acquired the name of Antichrist through his hostile struggle against the Mission of the Son of God. None other would have had the strength and the power to become the Antichrist. And in his warfare against the Will of God, Lucifer makes use not merely of one man on earth but of nearly all of mankind, thus leading them to destruction under the effect of the Divine Wrath! With this he set his foot upon this earth as lord of the earth and of the greater part of mankind! No wonder, then, that he could penetrate all the way to the altars, and that earthly religious representatives, even those of the Christian churches, were bound to become his victims. For they too expect the Antichrist just before the predicted Judgment. In this respect the great Revelation in the Bible, like many other things, has not yet been understood. *"The Book of Revelation says that this Antichrist will raise his head before the Judgment! But not that he is yet to come! If it is said therein that he raises his head, this clearly indicates that he must be here already, but not that he is yet to come. It means that he will be at the pinnacle of his dominion shortly before the Judgment!"* Listen to this warning call, you who have not yet become spiritually deaf and blind! Make the effort of thinking very seriously about it yourselves; for this is what is demanded of you now! If you remain indolent in this respect you give yourselves up as lost!

My question to you is where did Nietzsche get his information on Jesus and his disciples to come to the conclusion he did about Jesus teaching and how the disciples reacted if the gospels are already afflicted with the misconception?

Beggars can be slothful but rulers can be stuck with power whether they are lazy or driven. The enemy is dysfunction. Compassion is only a weakness if it causes enabling.

He seemingly was a man full of (self-)hate for himself because he couldn't control everything. He lost his love and spirituality that exists in every being somewhere during his life.

Thank you for the high quality video. I thought at first, no wonder he went insane, writing a book like that. I suppose in Nietzsches time, there was just as much darkness as there is today. I partly agree with him, that there are to many mistakes in theology, and in the concept of Christianity, but my how and why differ utterly from his views. From my viewpoint, the term "antichrist" is reserved for the pope, and any definition of Christianity is wrong, when Catholicism is defined as it. The word Christ is the Greek translation of the Hebrew word Messiah; knowing that gives a better definition of Christianity. His words on Luther are ridiculously mistaken, because the only reason Martin Luther was important, was that he translated the Bible. Same with Erasmus. Every one was murdered in their time, for reading the Bible in the common language. So Nietzsche was right, one could claim, that Luther saved Christianity, but popery is roman propaganda, not some sect of Christianity. Later in life, Luther tried to destroy popery, just as Nietszche tried to. But at least, Martin Luther knew who antichrist was, just as the other reformers did, I didn't hear any light like that from Nietszche in this reading. Wat does he even mean, when using the word "Christianity"? I suppose Prussian Sunday worshipers, although the word "Sunday" is not even found in the Bible. That's how wrong Christians are.

Nietzsche had clearly never read the Old Testament. He didn't seem to understand that Jesus came to fulfill the Old Testament, which has all throughout it the need for a sacrifice to atone for Sin. He also didn't grasp the myriad of prophecies and predictions which Jesus fulfilled, nor understand the Hebrew mindset at the time within which they expected their Messiah to be a conquering warlord.

If you empathize for somebody's suffering, but do nothing but use it as an excuse to increase your suffering, to blame God, you are wrong. If you empathize for somebody's suffering and use it as fuel to help them legitimately as a servant and glorify your Father in heaven, you have done good. These accusatory arguments are stupid, they are each and all schemes to eliminate the authority of reality as unbenevolent, to blame God whom gave all and gives all. "Existentialists", stupid and claiming to stand on something that is impossible to hold authority over unless you are literally omnipotent. I am a "foundationalist", pick a rock and stand on it, you are a limited being without absolute authority, is this placed on you benevolently or not? Is God good or is God evil? If reality is happenstance and indifference, then commit to this and reject life completely, if reality and it's creation of you is fundamentally good and benevolent, commit yourself to it as your loving God. Stop blaming people and groups and movements and shadows and bullshit when you have freely given existence, use it to serve what gave it to you as a child to his father or don't. This is exactly why you never once catch prophets and the Messiah speculating on anything, it's responsibility and nothing else, because all is given hierarchically and all must answer to reality, sky wizard or no, this is the truth

Jesus did not say that loving one's neighbors is the greatest commandment -- He said 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind,' (Luke 10:27), quoting Deuteronomy 6:4-9. "Love thy neighbor as thy self," is the second greatest commandment, He said.

His views on pity shows why he was not successful with women

I feel like he didn’t study universe law. Vibration energy etc. he’s too deep and complicated

"There was only one Christian and he died on the cross." - Ironically (not) the character of Jesus was a Jew whose primary purpose as Messiah was to prove to the world that the Jews were gods chosen people. That makes christianity itself the anti-christ.

If only Nietzche was alive today! He could look at all the amazing historical analyses of Christianity and the amazing cultural work done by modern anthropologists and historians to understand the Bible’s message in a more accurate way. Unfortunately it seems that the culture of his time, corruption of the church, and lack of historical understanding of the culture Jesus lived in, lead him to the conclusions he made. I can’t blame him, due to a lack of data for his time, but to say that Nietzsche had a caricatured view of the faith is an understatement.

I see why people are rattled by this dude 😂

The gospels are historical narrative and even secular scholars are dating them much earlier than they had originally thought, especially in Nietzsche time.

When Nietzsche took speculative metaphysics too literal 😭

Nietzsche proclaimed the death of God, but all he did was replace Him with another, and he choose Life. All his beliefs and criticisms are based within his church of The Will, but it does not mean he is right, he simply choose one way of being over another.

I have been studying this guy lately, and I went in really wanting to enjoy his work or find something intelligent he has said. No different than the modern common atheist, nietzsche is the epitome of hypocrisy. And unfortunately most of his doctrine is based around complete ignorance of the biblical narrative. I have never heard such a renowned philosopher speak so loudly about a topic they know so little about. He is so disillusioned by Christianity because of so called Christians, that it completely clouded his thought processes.

I think if you had read Beyond Good and Evil, Genealogy of Morals, The antichrist, and the Gay Science before Thus spoke, you would think differently. And keep this in mind as well, Nietzsche didn't really care how his work was interpreted. He was a perspectivist, he wouldn't have wanted his philosophy to be boiled down to some specific system like all other western philosophy was.

*Neitzsche is mean spirited.* *Without compassion and empathy we can not understand lives outside our own.**Understanding is a type of strength, it enables humans to work with each other, instead of being purely selfish.**Those who are weakened by what happens to them in this life need others to help them find their strength.* *Christ's teachings were about compassion in action, the church's teachings are a different story using Christ for their own gain.*
