Nietzsche wasn't really atheist at the term's real meaning. He thought that believing in god was just wasting your life; man's true happiness is found on Earth, not in Heaven. By "God is dead" Nietzsche meant that Christianity was loosing its monopoly to tell people what is right and what is wrong.

Nietzsche's disbelief in God was influenced by various factors, including his rejection of traditional Christian morality and the idea of a transcendent God. He believed that Atheism allowed for a more authentic and liberated human experience, free from the constraints of religious dogma. Additionally, Nietzsche's exploration of existential themes and his critique of established beliefs led him to question the existence of a divine being.
