    Christianity’s Origin Christianity as antiquity.-- When we hear the ancient bells growling on a Sunday morning we ask ourselves: Is it really possible! This‚ for a jew‚ crucified two thousand years ago‚ who said he was God’s son? The proof of such a claim is lacking. Certainly the Christian religion is an antiquity projected into our times from remote prehistory; and the fact that the claim is believed - whereas one is otherwise so strict in examining pretensions - is perhaps the most ancient

In his book Genealogy of Morals‚ Nietzsche is critical of “bad conscience” and considers it

    Friedrich Nietzsche’s on the Genealogy of Morality manages to capture what we could consider new and better human ideals‚ and transforms it into a reality that is not so farfetched. His problem‚ however‚ is that history as we know it has changed and people have been lead astray from their instinctual judgments as a species.
