It is the duty of the human understanding to understand that there are things which it cannot understand, and what those things are. Human understanding has vulgarly occupied itself with nothing but understanding, but if it would only take the trouble to understand itself at the same time it would simply have to posit the paradox.- soren kierkegaard

Today in my philosophy class we were discussing Nietzsche's master/slave morality. Basically, he believed that most people are losers- most people trick themselves into believing they are free when in fact they are blindly buying into other peoples ideologies in which they are enslaved by. I find it ironic though that in Nietzche's attempt to provoke individualism, he in the end created his own followers. I asked my T.A. "isnt it ironic that so many people devoutly follow Nietzsche's teaching- conforming to his 'individualistic ideologies" - he laughed.
A boy sitting behind me declared that I was the class "spokesman."
Just something I was pondering.
ps. I think that Nietzsche was a miserable man, and in the "godless" world he paints it is so evident how corrupt man is without God.
