Thank you for the suggestion. I apologize if some of my assertions about Nietzsche were false, I am currently taking an intensive course on him and although I have read many of his works I am still in the process of analyzing his core assertions and should evaluate him more hesitantly.

Do you still remember that course?

Yeah you're definitely right, its a metaphysical distinction. He reverses the Aristotelian metaphysics of concepts from a thunderbolt that strikes man from reality to a man's thunderbolt striking reality and at the same time falls into the black hole of demanding the validity of human consciousness be proved by means of unconsciousness.

Don't suppose there's a link or file anywhere to those hand out quotes?

Nietzsche meant that all outside events that occur in your life are good. So you lose your job, your wife, you become critically ill, these are all good things because they give you the opportunity to strengthen yourself. He wishes calamity upon his friends because "the only thing that matters is that you survive". This has everything to do with events outside our control, and nothing to do with the way we respond to these events or conduct our lives. We should have values that dictate our character, and love whatever life has to throw at us to test our character. I think this was one of 4 of the interpretations he gave, but I think this whole speech purported that there was a contradiction that wasn't there and muddled up Nietzsche's ideas when it was already pretty clear what was meant. My opinion anyhow.

It was Nietzsche that said; if you are going to barbecue never forget the steak sauce.

Yes you're right, in many of her books she sometimes unfairly deems Nietzsche a "subjectivist" and "irrationalist", but she has also stated in interviews that she once considered Objectivism a reinterpretation of Nietzsche but eventually considered their ideas to be too far apart. However there are great similarities between the philosophies including their ethics and thisworldliness

I didn't say that I said he thinks man creates reality, but that concept formation was the attempt of man to transform reality into fixed arbitrary nonexistent images. What I mean by proving consciousness through unconsciousness is that he challenged man to prove if his sensations were true of reality in itself which is impossible to prove and reduces cognition to a line of zeros

I'm not exactly well versed enough to provide the positive definition of why concepts are real and arise out of a synthesis of existence and man using logic, I would suggest that you read Ayn Rand's "Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology". Don't worry, its only metaphysics. Most people have a horrible bias against Ayn Rand and have read few of her philosophical works

hmmm very good

I think Nietzsche wanted us to accept everything as good, not because all things are equally valuable to us but because it allows one to remain in the Dionysian rather than the Appolonian. It is a very interesting defense for what some call a "eastern" view. Rather than attempting to engage with and take apart this world to get what we desire, he wants us to sit back and let the beauty of fate flow through us. What makes it even stranger is that it is inconsistent through his works

study your body before studying any philosopher or saint , your body has everything you want to know or you should know in it . inside your body is the whole universe . you dont have to reach the surface of the moon if you know what( inside your body) made you curious about the moon . a dog do not want to go to the moon because they do not have thinkability(human languages). before you climb up the highest mountain you should find what, inside you, made you doing so. is it your body or is it your thought ? anything that you want more than your body wants is called "greed". and any forms of human greed cause wastes and problems .

say yes to everything...lol

i respect you more if you live closer to a point where you want to live according to what your body wants not by your thoughts . your body simply wants to eat, sleep, quench its thirst, have sex, avoid danger, find safety and entertain itself . your body is more important than Nietzsche .

This tension between monism and "dualism" in Nietzsche is a result of his epistemology of ethics. All values are subjective, a result of certain "wills" in the human unconscious. Therefore when one postulates an objective point of view nothing has value and Nietzsche becomes an optimistic nihilist, or monist. Operating with the same epistemological claims as Kant, in the end he only becomes a more desparate version of him, hinting at an Aristotelian ethics that he himself cant justify

This is why this guy is a failure at his profession, from Ecce Homo § Beyond Good and Evil, 1. "Now that the yea-saying part of my life-task was accomplished, there came the turn of the negative portion, both in word and deed: the transvaluation of all values that had existed hitherto, the great war,-the conjuring-up of the day when the fatal outcome of the struggle would be decided. Meanwhile, I had slowly to look about me for my peers, for those who, out of strength, would proffer me a helping hand in my work of destruction." Nietzsche ... So much for being the ultimate Yes sayer (There's also a difference being Ye Sayer and a Yes Sayer that this putz didn't comprehend) and that also means Nietzsche isn't a value monist.

any thought and all thoughts of humans are based or constructed on human languages(words,numbers,signs,codes etc.), and human languages are of immaterial ... having no mass,no color,no smell,no weight and no temperature, they are like ghosts. all philosophical thinking seems to me like dancing with ghosts . there are many gods, saints, great people and all the "great quotes" out there that this world have known of . but we humans still live with wars, conflicts, crimes , hates, fears etc etc. no-things(immaterial things ; thoughts) CANNOT change no-things(thoughts) permanently. a good thought can not be biologically inherited to next generation because it is not of physical. a good thought is good, but not worth of being serious about .
