The Origin Of The Fascist Mentality        41




               Peters, Nietzsche's biographer, his philosophy
               rested on Roman and Greek paganism, and in his
               writings he called for "a new Caesar" to transform
               the world. 13
                      Nietzsche had a particular hatred of the
               ethical views of Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
               In his opinion, concepts such as love,
               compassion and humility, must be abandoned
               and replaced with a so-called "master morality"
               which accepted the warlike and ruthless state of
               nature. In Thus Spake Zarathustra, he wrote, "Of
               all that is written I love only what a man has
               written with his blood. Write with blood, and
                                                                  The German racist Wagner,
               you will experience that blood is spirit." 14      known for his reverence of
                      Nietzsche was also a racist. He             European paganism and
                                                                  hatred of divine religions,
               maintained that one part of mankind was
                                                                  was regarded in Hitler's
               composed of übermensch (superman), and that        time as the greatest artistic
               the others had to serve and obey them.             genius.
               Furthermore, he claimed that these so-called
               "supermen" would found an aristocratic world order, a theory which was put
               into practice by Hitler's armies at the start of the Second World War in 1939.
                      These two aspects of Nietzsche's philosophy, his racism and reverence
               for violence, are allied closely to Darwinism. Nietzsche's thought was in fact
               strongly influenced by Darwin. Darwin's discrimination between the different
               races conformed closely to Nietzsche's perception of "superior and inferior








                 The likeness of those who disbelieve is that of someone

                   who yells out to something which cannot hear—it is

                 nothing but a cry and a call. Deaf—dumb—blind. They

                                     do not use their intellect.
