Excerpt from book: THE RELIGIOUS LIFE. The Double Contest Against Evil.?If an evil afflicts us we can either so deal with it as to remove its cause or else so deal with it that its effect upon our feeling is changed; hence look upon the evil as a benefit of which the uses will perhaps first become evident in some subsequent period. Religion and art (and also the metaphysical philosophy) strive to effect an alteration of the feeling, partly by an alteration of our judgment respecting the experience (for example, with the aid of the dictum "whom God loves, he chastizes") partly by the awakening of a joy in pain, in emotion especially (whence the art of tragedy had its origin). The more one is disposed to interpret away and justify, the less likely he is to look directly at the causes of evil and eliminate them. An instant alleviation and narcotizing of pain, as is usual in the case of tooth ache, is sufficient for him even in the severest suffering. The more the domination of religions and of all narcotic arts declines, the more searchingly do men look to the elimination of evil itself, which is a rather bad thing for the tragic poets?for there is ever less and less material for tragedy, since the domain of unsparing, immutable destiny grows constantly more circumscribed ? and a still worse thing for the priests, for these last have lived heretofore upon the narcoticizing of human ill. Sorrow is Knowledge.?How willingly would not one exchange the false assertions of the homines religiosi that there is a god who commands us to be good, who is the sentinel and witness of every act, every moment, every thought, who loves us, who plans our welfare in every misfortune?how willingly would not one exchange these for truths as healing, beneficial and grateful as those delusions But there are no s...
弗里德里希·尼采(Friedrich Nietzsche, 1844-1900),19世纪德国哲学家,唯意志论和生命哲学主要代表之一,被认为是世界最伟大的思想家之一。
早年在波恩大学和莱比锡大学学习,获博士学位。不到25岁就被聘为瑞士巴塞尔大学的古典语文学副教授,并在一年以后成为正教授。一生著述颇丰,如《悲剧的诞生》、《查拉图斯特拉如是说》、《善恶的彼岸》、《强力意志》等,对20世纪的思想界产生重大影响。1889年初,在意大利的都灵街头摔倒,就此精神错乱,于11年后在德国的魏玛去世。
Religion and government As long as the state, or more precisely, the government knows that it is appointed as trustee on behalf of a group of people in their minority, and for their sake considers the question whether religion is to be preserved or eliminat...
评分 评分 评分虽然还来不及翻阅前面的长篇大论,但是后面的语录却非常好用,随时随地,随手一份,就像给自己昏昏欲睡的神经注射了一剂针剂。原来我也可以读,这种需要坚强的神经,只给自由精灵的书!
评分他不再是用A=B,B=C,所以A=C这极其局限的方法来证明.因为其实真理再简单不过,都是摆在眼前的,只是人类自己骗自己罢了.这就是知性思维. 我看过的哲学类的书不多,对比起是又是数学家又是哲学家的笛卡儿的证明,他实在太易懂了.而且越是小孩越看得懂.他...
