Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Friedrich Nietzsche wrote the phrase "God is dead" in his philosophical works?

Yes. Two reference sources state that Friedrich Nietzsche used the phrase "God is dead," appearing in The Gay Science and Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and that he published the 'God is dead' obituary. Several other scholarly items attribute the death-of-God idea to Nietzsche without quoting the phrase.
