“God is dead,” proclaimed Zarathustra. “And we have killed him.” What can he possibly mean by that? Who could kill a God? How could that be done? Why does Nietzsche believe that the existential, or psycho-cultural reality that he claims to be diagnosing portends earth-shattering convulsions in the 20th and 21st centuries? What possible relevance could that have for the modern world, in which religions seem to be still playing such powerful roles in the politics of most nations? Does this situation undercut, or tend to confirm the Nietzschean diagnosis? Tune in to find out.
