Thus Friedrich Nietzsche viewed [[Mohammed]], [[Buddha]], [[Homer]] etc., not as religious figures, but as creators of rigid moral frameworks, who lost their authority as [[Europe]] severed ties with its diverse religious tradition.

=== Influence on Freud ===
Nietzsche wrote his books from one to three decades before [[Sigmund Freud]] wrote his, and published his first book the same year that Mietzsche died (1900). Although Sigmund Freud said that he had never read Nietzsche's works, this statement is contradicted by Freud paraphrasing and quoting Nietzsche in private conversations and in his own personal journals. The similarities are: the concept of the unconscious mind, the idea that the individual becomes more comfortable and effective when he pushes unacceptable thoughts and memories into his unconscious mind, the idea that repressed emotions and instincts are expressed in disguise, dreams are symbolic and a cathartic process which has health benefits,the suggestion that hostile, unconscious feelings are projected on others, who are then seen as the perpetrators, is the basis of paranoid thinking, the acknowledgment of a repetition compulsion (for Nietzsche, eternal reoccurrence) <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7728371</ref><ref>http://www.psychologytoday.com/files/attachments/58144/the-birth-psychoanalysis.pdf</ref>

===Influence on the American Library Association===
Nietzsche's nihilistic writings, in particular his infamous screed of "God is dead" and that humanity has no common good to which everyone was responsible, formed the basis of the American Library Association's radicalization, even diverging from another influential figure in their radicalization, [[John Stuart Mill]]'s insistence that they protect people from harm.<ref>http://www.eagleforum.org/educate/1996/feb96/focus.html<br />"The ALA [American Library Association] has rejected this idea [from John Stuart Mill] of the Right to Protect and has instead accepted the nihilistic ideas of the 19th century German philosopher, Friedrick Nietsche, who preached the now-familiar refrain that "God is dead" and that there is no common good to which we are all responsible."</ref>
