A Reason Nietzsche Rejected Christianity

Mark Vance sent me this one.

“I never saw the members of my father’s church enjoying themselves.”
Quoted in Current Thoughts and Trends, June 2001, page 4.

Reminded me of this quote I cited earlier from Thus Spake Zarathustra:
And he who lives in their (the priests) neighborhood lives in the neighborhood of black pools, from out of which the toad that prophet of evil, sings its song with sweet melancholy. They would have to sing better songs to make me believe in their Redeemer: his disciples would have to look more redeemed!
