[P. 392] {FEUER} “Affinities between Religion and Art begin exactly where Religion ceases to be artificial; but if one needs a science for it, then Art is useless.” [898W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 392]
[899W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 392]
[P. 392] {anti-FEUER/NIET} “Religion, and Art too ere long – mere rudiments of earlier culture: like the os coccyx on the human body.” [899W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 392]
[900W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 392]
[P. 392] {anti-FEUER/NIET} “All in the long run is done with; even Voltaire’s Tragedie could not hold on, and the thing capsized. What has Science not pinned its faith to, and not so very long ago, that to-day lies on the dust-heap? The contrary with works of Art; alter, transform your views and sciences as ye will – there still stands Shakespeare, there Goethe’s Faust, there the Beethoven Symphony, with undiminished power!” [900W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 392]

[P. 392] {anti-FEUER/NIET} “Physics etc. bring truths to light against which there is nothing to say, but which also say nothing to us.” [901W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 392]
[902W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 393]
[P. 393] {anti-FEUER/NIET} “The most crying proof how little the sciences help us, is that the Copernican system has not yet dislodged dear God from heaven, for the great majority of men: here an attempt might haply be made from some other side, to which the God Within might lend his aid! To Him, however, it is quite indifferent how the Church may fret about Copernicus.” [902W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 393]

[P. 394] {SCHOP} {anti-FEUER/NIET} “Dogma of pity towards the beasts can but repose on a feeling of guilt: that self-preservation obliges us to destroy beasts, albeit we must recognise them as so akin to ourselves, only innocent, -- should teach us the guilt of our existence; a guilt which nothing save Pity on the vastest scale can mitigate.
{anti-FEUER/NIET} Very well, existence is no sin; but how if we feel it be such?” [903W-{78-82?}Notes of uncertain date, presumably from 1878-1882: PW Vol. VIII, p. 394]
