This is one interpretation. However, when I set the context properly, I see
the
meaning of the overman not as man's genetic superiority over others(racial,
or whatever)
but a vision of man which is the oposite of religion's. (men as sheeps)
Nietzche broke away from this vision by introducing his own view. Call it
existentialist.
He was similar to Darwin in that regard.
