Nietzsche's main focus, however, is on Christianity and how its actions and views are means to an end.

2,512 wordsCan morality provide us with a form of self-transcendence? Within the scope of this research, we will elaborate on various philosophers opinions in order to find out whether morality can provide us with a form of self transcendence.

In the following arguments, it will hopefully be proven that both the origin is flawed and the intent behind it, i. e. faith, is just as skewed. Also a proof will be presented as to how this master scheme was orchestrated to achieve ultimate social power and control though a popular stimulus, religion. Christianity came into existence in...

God Is Dead Thousands Of Years
1,420 wordsGod is Dead? My grasp of Nietzsche s statement God is dead fluctuates between an almost enlightened comprehension of what he means to a virtual stupor of confusion. However, during my more lucid moments of understanding (which I like to believe outweigh the moments of stupor hood), I see his point on a variety of levels. Nietzsche s writings on the subject are loaded with meaning; he purposely leaves his words wide open to interpretation. Just how we absorb Nietzsche s ideas on the subject of Go...

Friedrich Nietzsche Literary Technique
3,976 wordsFriedrich Nietzsche's career as a philosopher and writer is nothing short of monumental. His criticism of organized religion and support of nihilism are key characteristics of his work, and his books are unified by one simple fact: Nietzsche himself wrote them. While this revelation may not seem profound in any sense, Nietzsche's view of his vocation as an author is the source of inspiration, complication and, indeed, the very root of his philosophy.
