Abstract
Friedrich Nietzsche is a prominent thinker in his philosophy of Christianity and morality.
Almost in all of his writings, he criticized morality and Christianity and advocated for the
preference of any practice towards behaving master traits and noble characters. In this thesis, I
would argue that Friedrich Nietzsche’s taughts on morality and Christianity are selfcontradictory,
inconsistent and utopia. How could humans live in peace by ignoring and criticizing
the moral values? His philosophy of master morality, superman and the will to power are difficult
to be realized in a well ordered society. A healthy society hopes not for mere survival but
for evolving into and enjoying higher qualities of life. Therefore, I argue that Christian morality plays a greater role in maintaining peaceful coexistence in any society
