I've heard this quoted a lot, but I can't find the original source.

I'm surprised to find anything on the source of a joke, but this thread suggests it originated some time in the 1960s.

My impression was that Desrtopa was making an atheist jest.

(In the Recent Comments sidebar, this looked like:

Nietzsche is dead God

which is rather different!)

I saw that, and it ruins the joke a bit. Sigh.

FWIW, I really like Nietzsche.

Prepend 'God' with hyphens. "Nietzsche is dead. --God" works with or without the line break.
