I attacked you? Where are these so called attacks or as I call them ad hominems?
My response to someone in my comment section 4 days ago from today:
“Well, Greek mythology is actually useful for understanding Nietzsche’s work. I toasted to the Greek god of wine(amongst other things) which is Nietzsche’s favorite god(Dionysus) because of the other characteristics. In his defense Emerson did influence Nietzsche. I just don’t see the point in studying him to understand Nietzsche.”

“While other kids were watchin South Park, I was reading Nietzsche- I am a scholar in the sense that he’s a hobby of mine. Like guitar is, like astrology is.” -guitaoist
The reference to atheism being called nihilism:
D4Shawn’s comment to him:
“We’re going to have to turn you into an atheist. Actually, I’d be willing to bet that you’re already an atheist. In fact, everybody is an atheist (they just need to come to grips with the fact).”
guitaoist’s reply:
“man thats hopeless- nihilst in the house!”
D4Shawn’s reply:
“Could you elaborate a bit on what being a nihilist has to do with it?”
guitaoist’s reply:
“it seems that the belief that nothing here has any meaning or purpose is a waste of time- ur opinion comes from an inner faith in justice- an inner faith in the universe, that is- so u follow a pattern like every1 else”

I read from Thus Spoke Zarathustra (first part §3)
“Behold, I teach you the overman. The overman is the meaning of the earth. Let your will say: the overman shall be the meaning of the earth! I beseech you, my brothers, remain faithful to the earth, and do not believe those who speak to you of otherworldly hopes! Poison-mixers are they, whether they know it or not. Despisers of life are they, decaying and poisoned themselves, of whom the earth is weary: so let them go.”
My video where I asked him what he meant by saying he was a Nietzsche Scholar:
