Religious texts are historic events spoken through the lens of uneducated desert retards at best, I'm not putting that above anything else because it shouldn't even be considered literature.
On that note childrens books are very based.

You ever noticed that it's only the terminal midwits, the people who barely have about a 100 IQ, who disdain and disparage fiction?

Meanwhile Nietzsche loved Shakespeare and Middlemarch.

It takes >=130IQ to realize that the common names "fiction" and "nonfiction" have somehow been reversed. There's much more truth in even some basic YA novel than in some journalist's account of some irl subject.

Nietzsche is an absolute tosser. His ethos has been abducted by the mentally deranged. We appear to be splitting hairs of the same animal. Thus Spake Zarathustra is a fictional religious work anyway. Philosophy is inescapably "fictional" with it's dealings with the metaphysical and attachment to the "out-of-bounds" areas of ontology. Wittgenstein warned us about it. Anyway. I don't have a dog in this fight, (outdated idioms anyone?) but Meaning can be found in all genres and categories. Fiction can outline the delicate and surreal contours of our concrete reality and achieves a parallel description of truth. Incoming analogy: It's one big happy tree with a bunch of squirrels arguing about whose acorns are whose and which branch they fell from. It's a tad tiresome.
