The Antichrist - 27-42 (Jesus)
from The Nietzsche Library · host Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
In which the inception of Christianity is observed as a revolt born from a soil of corruption, defining a rejection not only of worldly reality but also of its own origins, and the figure of its founder emerges as a complex symbol of pure, unresisting love—an emblem of peace rather than a hero of conflict. Here unfolds the profound irony of a faith that, while promising eternal bliss and equality, was progressively distorted by ecclesiastical powers into an institution abhorrent to its original spirit, revealing a world-historical dissonance between its essence and its earthly manifestations.
