Nietzsche had a lot of philosophical ideas that didn’t have much/anything to do with atheism.

Sort of... not exactly... he was a practical atheist, to be sure. I'm not going to discuss this, though.

it isnt very accurate
 
When Nietzsche said that ‘God is dead’ he was saying that most people no longer consider God/religion to be the spiritual center or driving force in their lives. He wasn’t saying that God had literally died.

Nietzsche was very interested in people’s values and moral systems. He believed that religions like Christianity had replaced the older, more traditional moral systems and he worried that since people were losing interest in religion and religious values - but not regaining interest in the old systems, or any particular new systems – that our culture was at risk of descending into ‘nihilism,’ a state of not really valuing anything or having any substantial driving force in our lives.

So, what does that say about me?
 
I have a recollection of Nietszche describing his vision of god (I believe it was in Uncommed Thoughts?) paraphrased: God is like a small child playing with sand on the beach building the sand castles (our lives) and then destroying them at a whim... :)

Wait a second..... Was Nietzsche who said "God is dead"?!?

So how can he have non-atheistic ideas?
Click to expand...

Funny thing about atheists is that their every word doesn't center around the existence or non-existence of god. Hard to believe, I know, but it's true.

That's weird cause what I've heard is that he didn't believe in God....
Click to expand...

He didn't. But, that doesn't mean that the belief in god wasn't a force to be reckoned with. It doesn't mean that one of the main problems he saw with the world was a system of morals without focus. People who no longer believed in god but still based their morals on an outdated system. Or worse, lost all values and descended into nihilism.

It is perhaps one of the greatest tragedies that those very nihilists gathered around Nietzsche's work like jackals and fed on their misinterpretation of his words to further their nihilistic tendencies.

Misunderstanding. Philosopher's bane.



I was going to make the snap judgement and berate Nasor for claiming that Nietzsche believed in god, but after beginning to break down his statement, it's obvious that that is not what he is saying.

Take a deep breath. Relax. And read it again.
