Nietzsche's ';Antichrist'; - with respect to the Church, did Nietzshe pretty much hit the nail on the head?

there is no one here that would understand they will just tell you he was mad but yes he said it all didnt heNietzsche's ';Antichrist'; - with respect to the Church, did Nietzshe pretty much hit the nail on the head?
Poor Friedrich. Such genius and such anguish, in equal measure.





I think that when reading the work of very brilliant people, we may get the impression that they're agreeing with our innermost feelings, that they have put into memorable prose that which we have never been able to express for ourselves. This can be dangerous. I always put down my Nietzsche with a small shudder, reminding myself that this is the work of a very brilliant but troubled mind and should not be taken as -- well, as gospel.
