I'm doing an ethics project on Friedrich Nietzsche, and we're supposed to compare a philosopher's ideas on these existential questions with a religion, but I was unable to find anything about Friedrich Nietzsche's beliefs online. I was wondering if someone knew what Friedrich Nietzsche's answers to the following questions;
Where do we come from?
Why are we here? (What is our purpose?)
What happens to us when we die?
According to Friedrich Nietzsche; where do we come from? Why are we here? & What happens when we die

Nietzsche is essentially the founder of nihilism, that is, the concept that there is no inherent meaning in anything.
so,
Q: Where do we come from?
A:there is no real way that we can know that at all so what is the use of coming up with an answer.
Q:Why are we here?
A: There is no reason for our existence and if there is one we dont know and there is no way of knowing, there is no real purpose for life, and no actual meaning in life.
Q: What happens when we die?
A:there is no meaning of death and we would never know/nothing happens, because there is no meaning for something to happen.
Hope this help!
