Well I don't think you are a jerk - it was an emotional response to something you obviously feel very strongly about - Why do people feel so defensive about this subject ??

Not so funny the second time posted......
Now I have no desire to use this saying. And, looking at it, it's sort of a useless and baseless statement serving no practical purpose in the debate over the existence of God.

modern man is putting too much emphasis on developing the intellect rather than a more balanced holistic approach to education ????

The real irony is the further science advances - the more I believe !!! Just look at nature !!! We have an orderly, beautiful universe in which nearly all physical phenomena can be understood from a few simple mathematical equations. we have a universe that, had it been constructed slightly differently, would never have given birth to stars and planets, let alone bacteria and people. What are the mathematical odds of that hey ????

However, Nietzsche also believed that he could satisfy that loss of God by serving the role of a moral and ethical guide for those nihilists who feel that they've lost their god. That's not to say he felt a 'godliness', but rather a way outside of nihilism.
The response, "Nietzsche is dead: God" doesn't say anything other than to illustrate that God has the last word, and killed Nietzsche. It doesn't seem like anyone bothered to go any deeper than that.
