Dale Prins Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 See whole article here: In a statement that could upset a lot of people, [Jack Black] said: "Do you believe that God came down and went 'I have to make the Earth'? "And then said, 'I'm going to invent nighttime and daytime'. "You don't invent daytime and nighttime, it's just the Earth turning. It was written by kind of an idiot. "He didn't know basic stuff. I don't believe that God - and there may be a God, I'm not saying there isn't - whispered in someone's ear, 'This is what I want you to write, this is my message to the people, the humans of Earth'. "I don't believe that. Asa document it definitely reads like, 'This is written by somebody, this is somebody writing some stuff'." The dad-of-two admits he listened to a biography of German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche (he was on a long plane ride) and was immediately intrigued. "He was saying that the Bible was really the product of slave morality." explained the actor. "It was a document written by slaves. He's saying there are two kinds of morality, the slave and the master, and the master one is not entirely healthy. "There needs to be a new morality created by the superman, so that's what I'm gonna do. superman."
