Quote of the Day

Whatever a theologian regards as true must be false. There, you have almost a criterion of truth. His profound instinct of self-preservation stands against truth ever coming into honor in any way, or even getting stated. Wherever the influence of theologians is felt there is a trans valuation of values, and the concepts "true" and "False" are forced to change places. Whatever is most damaging to life is there called "true" and whatever exalts it, intensifies it, approves it, justifies it, makes it triumphant, is there called "false." When theologians, working through the consciences of princes, or of peoples, stretch out their hands for power, there is never any doubt as to the fundamental issue–the will to make an end. The nihilistic will exerts that power.
