I'm almost done reading Nietzsche and so far I've gathered that all man must do is have faith in what he beleives. Don't follow, but lead. As long as you beleive in something, that's all that matters. It's up to the individual to beleive what he believes. No one should tell him that one way is better than another. He should be able to distinguish between what is right or wrong. Even then, Right & Wrong are words created by men who wanted to keep power over the masses. Religion was created for the same thing; for the few to rule the many. I guess it's a Humanistic point-of-view. It's all about the man. Man and woman, together, are creators. It sounded harsh what I had said about him all lose weeks ago, but I get it now, I think.
When it comes to God being dead, well, what can be said about that. According to Nietzsche, God was killed by "The Ugliest Man" (Pity, I think.). But getting back to part 4, he brings together a rabble of men who, I beleive, are different aspects of life. I have to figure that out before I can go on. Anyway, our true end is not in finding God but in procreating the perfect man (the overman or the superman). It's all about our children. Our future doesn't end with Death or the afterlife. We should strive to think beyond the "kingdom of God". All the religions preach that when we die, we go to heaven, but what should be addressed is that when we die, the world goes on and our children will have to "rule the world". We should teach our children to be masters of their destinies and not slaves to their fates.
I'm still not sure or finished. Wish me luck.
Yes, yes. I know! It's taken me too long to read this book. I'm sorry. I'll try to do better next round.
