>books against cucktianity
Sound like a waste of time. Read The Ancient City and pic related instead. Rather than fight with phantoms it is better to look behind the curtain.

>True, I was always baffled by On Genealogy of Morality. His genealogy of resentment morality seems probable but it's all too speculative for me to take it seriously.
It isn't that far off really. I recommend you read pic related for a historical treatment of Christinaity and its spread.

Really what you have is that after the conversion of the Germanic tribes is that western Christianity was heavily syncretized with the attitudes and social structure of the Germanics who were not really easy prety for Christian spirituality. Then later those another Germanic fellows sought to purify the religion of the contamination his own ethnic culture wrought onto the Church.

This is not unlike Nietzsche's telling but he leaves some things out. To him, the church converts some Germs and they are such barbarians they apply their savagery to Christinaity itself, leading to the reformation. This leaves out the crucial step that the Germanics' first effect on the Church was to make it amenable to their type of social structure.

Adding this in to the mix. Not really a refutation of anything so much as a historicization.

>Nietzsche advocates a form of paganism.
This is.. imprecise but I can kind of agree. "Primitive" man did not make up his own gods. I suggest reading pic related to get a historical and anthropological understaning of 'universal' and 'folk' religions. Also 'The Ancient CIty' by Coulanges.
