“Nietzsche argued that the death of God would bring the upheaval of all morality and meaning and not its preservation. By raising these questions, Christians remind atheists who see the possibility of morality, meaning, and hope without God of their own prophetic heritage.”
—Margaret Manning (Ravi Zacharias International Ministries)

"Behold, I teach you the overman [ubermensch]! The overman is the meaning of the earth. Let your will say: the overman shall be the meaning of the earth! I beseech you, my brothers, remain faithful to the earth, and do not believe those who speak to you of otherworldly hopes! Poison-mixers are they, whether they know it or not. Despisers of life are they, decaying and poisoned themselves, of whom the earth is weary: so let them go!"
—Friederich Nietzsche,
Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Prologue,
"Friedrich Nietzsche predicted that secular people, losing touch with transcendence, would eventually lose a reference point from which to look down and judge themselves. In the end they would lose even the capacity to despise themselves. Thus, because of the 'death of God', they would confuse heaven with happiness, and happiness with health."
—Os Guinness
NEWS FLASH:
;)
Twenty-first century postmodern man swallows 19th century Friedrich Nietzsche hook, line, and sinker, proudly teaches state-sponsored, mandatory, Neo-Pagan, Nietzschean Philosophical Basics to the children in his schools, and then (ironically) calls himself “progressive”.
It just gets curiouser and curiouser.

‘Ubermensch-Kids’, Have Your Way!
Little "Overmen" in classrooms
Learning Zarathustra Tales,
Nihilism K thru 12, sir..

Don’t be fooled by “Poison-Mixers”,
Life-despisers every one!

Throw them out, and have your fun!
It’s the "common core" agenda:
“Ubermensch-Kids”, have your way!
Me-Me-Me-ites making “progress”,
Will-to-Power come what may!
It’s The Hollywood Solution…
Nietzsche breeds with Peter Pan.
YOU'RE THE MEANING!.....Keep pretending
That you’re really “Superman”!
It’s Big Brother’s grim proposal,
Welcome to the coming void.
Wormwood giggles his approval…
Screwtape’s simply overjoyed.
Lord, again we’ve come up empty.
Lord, have mercy on us please!
Give us Grace to see this darkness:
Death intrinsic...Sin’s disease.
Help us recognize the reason
Why You came here to this place:
To redeem a fallen people...
Precious gift…by grace through faith2.
