Speaking of destroying. I think we need people to reflect on what we Christians teach. I think most of us are not aware of what we are saying when we refer to God, sin, love, faith, etc. I am basically a poet (a conservative Christian) who loves words. Too often we use connotations rather than denotations, and the result is we talk past each other and do not understand what each other is saying. Nietzsche helps us examine what we say.

Zarathustra came down from the mountain crying: “God is dead, and the church is his tomb” (my interpretation). What he meant was that we so often speak of God, but in reality we live as atheists, as if God is not involved in our lives. That man had much to teach us Christians.
