      Reading over what Nietzsche wrote it's clear he does consider Democracy a slave morality program, but then so is Christianity, which is a strong foundation for Republicans.
      >implying all Christianity is the same. There are Christians who love fags, who are fags, and who hate fags. Repubs still seem to subscribe to Master morality because their versions Christianity have evolved towards it.

      I don't have much to contribute to this thread, as I don't know much Nietzsche. Except for how to spell it, apparently. But I do like this thread; I'll bite.

      Just what do you mean, teach people to "critically think, decide for themselves what's right and wrong?" It seems like, through this thread, you are showing us why the slave-morality, which is viewed as white-knighty, actually has faults. But I have a few questions for you: How do we decide what's right and wrong? How do we decide how to define morality? And once we've made that decision, aren't we then slaves to it? (Not 'slave' with the historical connotations that Nietzsche presents it with, but more in the "inescapable obligation" sense.) Or is morality a game one can choose not to play?
