PM carsten, he knows his Fritz
Yep, too bad the old sod is dead. We had so many pleasant tea parties (only a few with whips). I bet Lewis Caroll just copied from our tea parties, and added the White Rabbit later.
Now I'm not sure if I will have the time to write your homework, Vanessa - I could send you some of my homework on Nietzsche, but it's in German and has a bad handwriting.
One way to see 'God is dead' is to see this as mankind growing out of putting the responsibility for their deeds to someone else, but instead taking our life in our own hands and defining our moral itself. Moral then becomes a contract between individuals, and is not something falling from heaven. This gives every individual a big freedom of choice.
One can discuss what happens when people have no god, or when they have no moral.
Nowadays it seems that people who have a god have less morals than those with a god.
