Nietzsche’s critique of traditional morality was a central theme in his philosophy. He rejected the prevailing Christian framework and questioned the validity of moral absolutes. Nietzsche argued that morality, rooted in the dichotomy of good and evil, limited human potential and stifled individual expression. Instead, he called for the reevaluation of values based on personal will and self-creation. Nietzsche proclaimed the death of God as a metaphorical concept, signifying the collapse of the traditional metaphysical and moral foundations. The death of God meant that traditional sources of morality and meaning had lost their authority and no longer held sway over humanity. Nietzsche’s proclamation aimed to create space for the emergence of new values and the pursuit of individual flourishing and authenticity.
