Theology-related quote for the day

Today’s excellent post by Tom Rich puts me in mind of this favorite quote from that German philosopher with the funny, hard-to-spell name.

In truth there was only one Christian, and he died on the cross.

Friedrich Nietzsche; The Antichrist, §39

So this might not be a bad time to recall that Nietzsche was an admirer of Jesus — or, at least, of the ethics he preached; it was the organized churches he hated.
