“Incipit tragoedia,” Nietzsche exclaims at the closing of “The Gay Science,” but what stands before this tragedy? What has happened to usher in such a fatal turn to the “goat song”? The answer lies in Nietzsche's claim that, “God is dead! God remains dead! And we have killed him!” There can be little argument that these enraged words of Nietzsche are reveled by atheists and agnostic alike. On the other hand, theists acquainted with his writings revile them. Are there grounds to be correspondingly joyous and offended? Does the announcement carry any concern? Can the proclamation carry both joy and offense? What if the passage is being taken too literally? This is what needs to be investigated! The real question then is what exactly Nietzsche means when he asserts, “God is dead...And we have killed him!” In order to answer these questions, I intend to argue, through a critical exposition of Nietzsche’s claim, that God, although not completely dead, is surely becoming a footnote to the history of progress, and “We” are killing him.
