GEORGE: I don't go along with Nietzsche's "God is dead" however, because I don't think there was ever a god that lived in the first place, other than in the imagination of humans.-Matt hasn't actually picked you up on this, and so maybe I'm wrong, but I always assumed that Nietzsche meant the concept was dead, i.e. there was no basis for believing in God. As for the continuation I quoted, I thought it meant that Man in his misery would continue to need this unsubstantiated being (shadow). But there we go again, interpreting texts!
