The Divine after God's Death According to Nietzsche
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.details##
Abstract
Nietzsche's notorious declaration of God's death and his consubstantial atheism seems to be out of question. However, a closer attention to his philosophy should brush this commonplace off to see him as a strange atheist. Had he really arrived at a conclusive position on the ultimate reality? His instinctive atheism is on behalf of a visceral rejection to give a face or to take possession of that faceless and unutterable divine by any particular religion. But, being rather against a ‘mono-tonous-theism’, Nietzsche shortens his distance from the infinite and the eternal and the ‘infinite fire’ in his defense of polytheism. Nietzsche would will and love the divine by itself, not as a redeemer or a savior, or a personal and incarnate guarantee; perhaps, the divine's transient dancing footprints and flashes; but, the divine both transcendent and immanent?
