Manson followed his conscience. So did Lenin and Stalin.

So did Nietzsche. How many did he kill?

It's a pity to see you confuse political ambition for atheism.

How many people did Karl Marx kill and how many have been killed advancing Marxism? Same question for Nietzsche?

Millions died at the hands of Nietzsche’s Superman.

His do-unto-others-then-split philosophy has heavily influenced modern schooling. Just look at college and university curricula today. At the very least, his me-first nihilism has contributed to the global slaughter of countless pre-born children.

Nietzsche's philosophy served as the philosophical foundation of the racial-supremacy the NAZIs claimed.

Last estimate is 6-8 million killed by the NAZIs.

I do not confuse anything.

Philosophy, politics, theology, atheism. They are all enmeshed in civilization. When one grows strong, it dominates the others. History has shown that when the atheism of communist and socialist regimes grows strong, it has little regard for human life.

My leader died for me. Your leaders kill for you.

It's a shame you confuse worldly ambition with the word of the Gospel, which is that we have a savior who died for us, all we need to do is accept that gift of grace. After we do that, we are saved UNTO good works, not BY good works, and that this world is only temporary and filled with horrors (some beauty, but many horrors) and that our willful decision here determine whether we spend eternity with our creator and savior or alone . If it isn't in the heart, you aren't truly saved.

Again, I don't understand why those who do not believe feel so compelled to convince others that what they are looking at doesn't really exist.

What possible gain is there? Oh, right. As he said in his ad “Enjoy yourself.”

Well, the assumption there (and his ad is riddled with logical fallacies) is that if you believe in God, you aren't enjoying yourself. I believe in God and I enjoy myself immensely.

From my other post:
“Your leaders kill for you.”

If, of course, you are a secular socialist/communist that believes in a Stalinist/Bolsheviki approach to government.
