Contrary to the point, I had the following thought: "Calvin burned someone at the stake?! What the heck was I doing going to a church named after him?!"
In accord with the point, that whole time was *nuts*. The "War on Christmas" would have actually been a series of actual wars - war wars, if you will.
Dan Carlin tells a story from that time. 4 hours. An incredible story, well told, with hints of implications today. (You in particular would like one of his analogies.)

I think this is a good example of Nietzsche having a solid point to make, but reaching just a hair too far in the delivery.
