Kathern Hepburn told Hukphrey Bogart, in The African Queen, 'Nature is what we were put here on Earth to overcome.' And the conflict or contrast of Foreful rebellion against the conquering army and country of Rome, compared with Christ's message of peace and reward in Heaven gave Barabas an advantage in the people's valuation of their prospects. But neither position was a solution to the needs of the society and people of Isreal. Neither peace nor war would give them control over their own lives and the absurdity of life was once again front and center in morality and politics. The will to power, in Nietzsche's view, was power over your own morals, your personal evaluations, the power to chose against the Church and against the state. To chose man for man's sake and to end the dictates of both religion and politics and decide to end man's inhumanities to man and work for the common good of mankind.
