Zusammenfassung:Zusammenfassung: "Paul Bishop chronicles the effort of serious religious thinkers who ‘speak back’ to Nietzsche’s Zarathustra on the proclamation that God is dead. Here finally is a study that unpacks the religious dimensions of modernity’s most anti-religious philosopher, of an active nihilist who reinvents his own demigod Dionysus, champion of anti-faith, as a counter to Christ. Bishop produces a rich catalog of Christian thinkers who took lessons from Nietzsche’s elevation and sublimation of Dionysus, his quasi-religious doctrines of eternal recurrence, the superhuman, self-overcoming and amor fati. Pondering the fact that shallow atheists fail to register emotion at the news that God is dead and we humans have killed him, Bishop reveals how some religious thinkers responded more sympathetically and dialectically to Nietzsche’s challenge.
