Atheism

According to Nietzsche, " ... [man] ejects from himself all his denial of himself, of his nature, naturalness, and actuality, in the form of an affirmation, as something existent...as God..."(92). Nietzsche believes that the concept of God is very distant from man and in fact the exact opposite of man. Nietzsche believes that God violates man's nature and that being Christian violates ones true nature. I don't think being Christian goes against one's nature. Man's nature is not to steal, kill, lie and cheat. I know I have no way to prove this, but I think people have more of a judeo-christian nature than Nietzsche thinks. All the time there are random acts of kindness during tragedies and disasters. I think Nietzsche is overly cynical.
