In Section 15 of the First Essay of the Genealogy of Morality, Thomas Aquinas talks a fair bit about Christianity. Nietzsche expresses his thoughts about it, and shares his opinions on Christianity. He talks about what he believes the true motivation behind the Christian belief is, and why people choose to believe in Christianity. I do not agree with what Nietzsche believes and interprets. I do not believe his thinking is true and accurate, and I have my own views against his. .
Nietzsche disagrees with what Thomas Aquinas says. Nietzsche is against everything that Aquinas believes in mostly because Aquinas is a Christian and Nietzsche is an atheist. Nietzsche is a naturalist, and believes that nothing more than nature exists. He thinks that we as humans are simply an advancement of animals. He believes that we are just spending our lives searching for a meaning and we just want answers. Nietzsche disagrees with everything Thomas Aquinas says mostly when it in regards to religion and Aquainas' views on Christianity. Nietzsche says that those who believe in and follow Christianity are the weak ones, just looking for power and a way to be like the strong. He believes that Christianity emphasizes the weak, and emphasizes the fact that we dislike this weakness in ourselves. .
Nietzsche had a few ideas about why Aquinas says and thinks what he does. Nietzsche believes that Christians delight in the torments of the damned, and feel more powerful because of it. He believes that Christians follow their religion partially because they do not want to be part of the damned, but want to be above them and watch them torment. Nietzsche believes that the motivations of Christians come from this desire to feel as if they are better than others, and to show everyone that they indeed are not the weak. .
Nietzsche believes and says that the reason people follow Christianity and believe in Christ is because they just want something to believe in.
