LATIN: “Deus
mortus est.” ‡‡
‡‡ ) “God is dead.” — an odd phrase, & reverse-engineered
translation of the phrase by 19th. C. Germ. philologist & couch
pope supreme Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche; & to be honest, while vexingly perplexing &/or bemusing,
not terribly offensive, at least not to
an ancient Roman, in sofar as ancient
Romans would probably reply, “pray tell, which god?”
