Nietzsche

I found Nietzsche's writing to be more like poetry or something else artistic and emotional. I'm not sure if I understood most of it but from what I could tell, he seemed to have a sort of harsh outlook on life. His view of religion actually offended me. He uses terms like "religious nonsense" and claims God has created a vicious circle of himself, since he makes himself necessary.

I personally think Nietzsche has it out for christianity and God. He seems to be real critical of the whole religous belief and I feel he is putting down people of faith. I know everyone is entitled to write what they feel but maybe I just took this too personally. I think Nietzshe has had some personal problem with his faith in God and now he's bitter and trying criticize the whole thing.
