Quote of the Day: Nothing Necessary Remains

"When one gives up the Christian faith, one pulls the right to Christian morality out from under one's feet. This morality is by no means self-evident... By breaking one main concept out of Christianity, the faith in God, one breaks the whole: nothing necessary remains in one's hands." -- Nietzsche

Christian morality understood as the positing of "objective values".

"... nothing intellectually compelling or challenging.. bald assertions coupled to superstition... woefully pathetic"
