Will to Power (the concept moreso than the book) is pretty heavily anti-Christian.

Yeah, I agree. But the Last Man is the guy who claims to reject Christianity, God, and Organized religion (like so many do) and then lives his life in almost complete accordance to those guidelines and rules that they supposedly disdain. And in the Birth of Tragedy, the Doric force that holds back the Dionysiac, Apollinian morality, which is criticized for being naive (like claims that modern religious sexual morality is naive or close-minded), have more propensity for being respected than the claims that you must embrace the Dionysiac... which, you can't do because it would destroy you... Those claims make people look like a fraud.
I like Fred and my Sigmund.
