Nietzsche's Error

Name: Work Video:
Duration: 3 min 30 s
Description: Nietzsche got it all wrong. God is never dead. For intellectuals over the last two centuries God has simply changed form. People always postulate an Absolute. Even today's poststructuralist dictum that there are no absolutes is an absolute. So too, yesterday's most confirmed existentialist, waiting for Godot, had found an absolute in the total absence of meaning and of God.
