Herr Nietzsche would explain this with much greater clarity than the author of this piece

Herr Nietzsche is dead. He died burbling and dribbling bits of psychotic mental saliva down his chin, his mind having achieved its wretched self-referential state of chaos and irrelevance which he confused as a personal apotheosis.

You would be better off praising your dog's mind for its clarity.

"Nietzsche is dead" - God

[G. Stolyarov II]

Mr. Curry,

Though I disagree wholly with many of Nietzsche's nihilistic and Dionysian ideas, this is no reason to reject the entire body of his thought, especially his refutation of the parasite's altruist morality in favor of a more individualistic approach that recognizes that individual innovators, who had dared to break with tradition, have been the prime movers of history. Nietzsche, in that regard, had instituted a worship of Man the Thinker, the Apollonian Man whom he had (quite to contradict himself) elsewhere denounced. Though I, as a full-fledged atheist, do not myself embrace the proposition that God is dead, I find that Nietzsche used it skillfully to urge Man to aspire to that level of efficiency and dignity "once" reserved for deities.

I am certainly far more fond of Nietzsche than I am of Augustine or Auguste Comte.
