Well, that's what I was an early adherent of...until I realized his main thing ultimate philosophy was basically wishful thinking of humanity's potential. You could most accurately call me a nihilist, but I'm also interested in discussing luck(a certain metaphysical attribute) and some other things I can't think of right off.

Anyways, I suppose I'll have to come up with something coherent to contribute, so I'unna be silent a while, methinks..

@boredrightnow,
Boredrightnow,
Considering the name of your thread are you wanting to discuss this man's philosophy? Now you will have to refresh my memory, what is the definition of nihilism?

@William,
I wouldn't know how to approach the philosophy of chance with anything but math, but if you could, it would be a very interesting discussion.

@boredrightnow,
Nietzsche intrigues me. If we do begin a discussion on him, if it is possible rather than create a discourse on what he thought philosophically, let's do it biographically as we try an piece together his life one step at a time in relations to the transistions he made and his thinking at the time of those transistions.
Thanks,
william
