Nietzsche’s Critique of Morality
To finish our conversations walking through the various moral theories in the last 11 chapters, we felt we should provide Nietzsche’s Critique of Morality, largely from his book ‘On the Genealogy of Morality‘
We Discuss:
- Morality through power struggle.
- Whether different types of people need different standards of morality.
- If suffering has any benefit to the individual or bigger picture (society).
- If Jesus was a terrorist.
