"This picture in a 1981 magazine means nothing in terms of our argument, of course. Show me a picture of the bones of Moses"

Here is the full sentence;
<<<The Nazi era has been regarded by many as having its intellectual origin in the ideas of Nietzsche and in 1981 an issue of Der Spiegel carried a cover page with a gun-wielding Hitler back to back with a reflective Nietzsche. The caption read, "Täter Hitler, Denker Nietzsche" (perpetrator Hitler, thinker Nietzsche).>>>

It means that what the connection between Hitler's actions and Nietzsche's thought are seen by a great many people other than myself so it means a great deal in terms of argument. The other comment (beside having nothing to do with anything)is gratuitously silly and purposely insulting, but then I expect that sort of behavior from you by now.

<<<"The focus of western societies — particularly U.S.A. society — is often on a self-serving "ethics" indiscriminately imposed on others. But in the long run according to Max Weber, founder of scientific sociology, the only really significant factor in human society is the free, value-creating initiatives of the individual personality<b/>. That is why interest in Nietzsche persists and his legacy lives on today.">>>

Indeed! The cat is out of the bag and we are just now beginning to see the deleterious ramifications that such worldviews have on society and the moral and ethical vacuum that is created when every mans god stares at them in the mirror every morning.
