Der Antichrist German Edition edition by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche Politics Social Sciences eBooks
The Anti-Christ is more about the organized religious institution of Christianity than it is about God or even Christians themselves (although he does criticize both God and Christians to some degree, too). The basis for his criticisms are as follows:1. Christians lifted their religion from pagans.
2. The Bible is full of inconsistencies.
3. The leaders within the Christian faith are con-men and liars.
4. There are better choices than Christianity.
4a. The things Nietzsche states that he values over Christianity in the book include: Buddhism, Code of Manu, Jews/Judaism, Islam, and pretty much everything else.
5. The apostle Paul was one of the original Christian con-men.
6. Western civilization does not lie on a bedrock of Christianity as many modern people often claim (mistakenly in Nietzsche's opinion). He states that since Christianity was lifted from the pagans, it's really paganism that our civilization was built upon.
There is clearly a ring of truth in all of these assertions. I'm just not sure that it's as big of a deal as Nietzsche makes it out to be. But who am I to argue with the brilliant Friedrich Nietzsche?

Der Antichrist German Edition edition by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche Politics Social Sciences eBooks Reviews
It amazes me how Nietche's lessons, in this little book, continues to have a ring of truth even to this day!
The book is fairly easy to read and poses some quite interesting observations about society and, particularly, religion, All delivered in a clean, straight to the point, language. A must read for anybody who is studying religion or, for other reasons, wants an understanding of Nietche and his critiques of religion. The language is somewhat harsh and high string, but - to me at least- this only serves as a comical relief, when contextualized to modern society.
I was curious to read some Nietzsche. Didn't really know whay it was all about. Meh. It was interesting, at least.
In Nietzsche's earlier works, he made several allusions to "The Anti-Christ," a man Nietzsche hoped would eventually be born. Unlike the traditional religious connotation, however, Nietzsche's anti-christ is a man who has such a deep insight into the universe, so pure a skepticism, that he is able to see truth like none before him. Spun throughout Nietzsche's works are allusions to the characteristics which this individual would possess to deliver this great insight into the world.
As one of his later works, I hoped this book would be that story. I had hoped that Nietzsche would bring together the threads of this new world view into a single poignant moment. Unfortunately, Nietzsche is never so forward and organized and an expectation otherwise was perhaps doomed to disappointment.
Instead of this culmination of work, I found this book a trifle repetitive. Over the course of 90 pages, Nietzsche repeats many of the anti-religious themes embedded in his earlier works. For those interested in this aspect of his scholarship (or unfamiliar with his previous works), I imagine this would be an excellent collection of his thoughts. He uses numerous examples to clearly indicate his attitude towards the rise of Christ, in life, as an ideal to equal his favorite Hinduism. For most of the book, however, he tells the story of the fall of Christ, in death, to the selfish motives of his flock. He weaves a story of an ideal which was so beyond his followers to understand that it became a twisted message used to grasp power.
Perhaps more important then the collection of thoughts is the success Nietzsche has in expressing his respect for Christ the man. Never before in Nietzsche's readings had I understood where he casts blame for the fall of Christianity. This makes the book especially accessible and well worth the read for people interested in his anti-organized religion attitudes.
Enjoyed reading FWN's take on Christianity's role in moral structure and social influence. Obviously, given the title of his work, he opposes Christianity to its core. I myself, if I have to choose, am predominantly Christian in my beliefs but I am not so narrow minded to where I prevent my self from experiencing differing view points. His take on religion, predominantly Christianity, seems rather pessimistic and best. Either way it was a good read. Enlightening to say the least.
Nietzche follows his basic premise of 'The worst thing to happen to humanity is Christianity' through out his book, and will certainly make those who read this book uncomfortable, but challenging. This is a book for Christians, and non Christians alike as Nietzche presents truths about Christianity in addition to his own personal thoughts, leaving the reader with his own questions about Christianity.
A mildly interesting book that serves as a scathing observation of the Christian faith. There are some good arguments made in this book that will make anyone contemplate what Nietzsche is saying (whether you are of faith, or an atheist), but some of what is wrote in this book comes off as nothing more than angst, bitterness and extremely juvenile at times. That is not say it isn't written well, because it most certainly is - and is also a testament to the books lasting impact - but I couldn't help but envision Nietzsche as being more than a little childish with some of the inane passages in the book.
With this being the first Nietzsche book that I have read, I was somewhat impressed (mainly at the way it is written and how it demands introspection), but found myself getting bored by the halfway point because it doesn't ever really go anywhere other than presenting chapter after chapter of why Nietzsche feels that Christianity is the worst thing to ever happen to the planet earth, and the thing is, the book is barely over 100 pages long.
I'll read more from Nietzsche, especially since most of his books can be found for free and I would recommend this book to those curious of his works. Despite the books angry repetition, it does leave you with pondering thoughts and in all honesty, I think even those that are highly religious could learn something out of this book.
