“Wenn alles still ist, geschieht am meisten” Søren Kierkegaard Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855) war ein dänischer Philosoph, Theologe und Schriftsteller, der als einer der Begründer der Existenzphilosophie gilt. Seine Werke beschäftigten sich mit Themen wie Individualität, Glaube, Verzweiflung und der Beziehung des Menschen zu Gott. Er kritisierte sowohl die Hegelsche Philosophie als auch das etablierte Christentum seiner Zeit, das er als oberflächlich und institutionalisiert empfand. Einige seiner bekanntesten Werke sind: Entweder – Oder (1843) – ein Werk über ästhetische und ethische Lebensweisen Furcht und Zittern (1843) – eine Reflexion über Glauben und das Opfer Abrahams Die Krankheit zum Tode (1849) – eine Analyse von Verzweiflung und Selbstverwirklichung Kierkegaards Denken beeinflusste später Philosophen wie Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger und Jean-Paul Sartre.

Nietzsche litt entsetzlich an Migräne, aber Mitleid wollte er nicht. Er verabscheute es. Der Philosoph Nietzsche war einer der stärksten Kritiker des Christentums und der Gottesidee überhaupt. Dass es nicht allein mit Kopfweh zu tun hatte, erklärt Theologin Christiane Tietz in ihrem neuen Buch. «Gott ist tot», - dieses Verdikt zitieren die meisten, wenn sie an Friedrich Nietzsche denken. Darüber vergessen sie oft den wichtigen Nachsatz «Gott ist tot, - und wir haben ihn getötet.» - Tatsächlich hat sich der Philosoph und Künstler Friedrich Nietzsche fast sein Leben lang an der Gottesfrage und am Christentum abgearbeitet. Das belegt Autorin Christiane Tietz in ihrem neuen Buch über Nietzsche «Leben und Denken im Bann des Christentums». Die Theologin möchte Nietzsche vor allem zuhören und verstehen. Einige seiner Kritikpunkte am Christentum kann sie nachvollziehen, etwa seinen Ärger über eine Form von Mitleid, die Menschen klein hält und bevormundet. Gleichzeitig zeigt die ehemalige Zürcher Theologieprofessorin Christiane Tietz, wie sehr Nietzsche biographisch und intellektuell vom Christentum geprägt war. Nietzsche kann wohl nicht begreifen, wer nicht auch etwas über die Theologie und die christliche Landschaft weiss, die Nietzsche umgab. Er lebte in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Damals konkurrierten fromme und liberale Ausformungen von Christentum miteinander, besonders in Basel, wo der junge Nietzsche lehrte und an Migräne litt. Zu seinem 125.

Miroslav Volf critiques Nietzsche's vision of power, love, and suffering—and offers Jesus's unconditional love as a more excellent way.The idea that competitive and goalless striving to increase one's power is the final Good, does very important work in Nietzsche's philosophy. For Nietzsche, striving is good. Happiness does not rest in feeling that one's power is growing. In the modern world, individuals are, as Nietzsche puts it, ‘crossed everywhere with infinity.' …And therefore condemn to ceaseless striving … The will to power aims at surpassing the level reached at any given time. And that goal can never be reached. You're always equally behind.Striving for superiority so as to enhance power does not just elevate some, the stronger ones. If the difference in power between parties increases, the weak become weaker in socially significant sense, even if their power has objectively increased. Successful striving for superiority inferiorizes.”In this third installment of his Gifford Lectures, Miroslav Volf offers a trenchant critique of Friedrich Nietzsche's moral philosophy—especially his exaltation of the will to power, his affirmation of eternal suffering, and his agonistic conception of love. Nietzsche, Volf argues, fails to cultivate a love that can endure possession, withstand unworthiness, or affirm the sheer existence of the other. Instead, Nietzsche's love quickly dissolves into contempt. Drawing from Christian theology, and particularly Jesus's teaching that God causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good alike, Volf explores a different kind of love—agapic, unconditional, and presuppositionless. He offers a vision of divine love that is not driven by need or achievement but that affirms existence itself, regardless of success, strength, or status. In the face of suffering, Nietzsche's amor fati falters—but Jesus's embrace endures.Episode Highlights"The sun, in fact, has no need to bestow its gift of light and warmth. It gains nothing from imparting its gifts.""Love that is neither motivated by need nor based on worthiness—that is the kind of love Nietzsche thought prevented Jesus from loving humanity and earth.""Nietzsche aspires to transfiguration of all things through value-bestowing life, but he cannot overcome nausea over humans.""God's love for creatures is unconditional. It is agapic love for the states in which they find themselves.""Love can only flicker. It moves from place to place because it can live only between places. If it took an abode, it would die."Show NotesMiroslav Volf's engagement with Nietzsche's workFriedrich Nietzsche's critique of Christianity as life-denying and his vision of the will to powerSchopenhauer's hedonism vs. Nietzsche's anti-hedonism: “What is good? Everything that heightens the feeling of power.”The will to power as Nietzsche's supreme value and “hyper-good”“The will to power is not a philosophy of life—it's a philosophy of vitality.”Nietzsche's agonism: the noble contest for superiority among equally powerful opponents“Every GOAT is a GOAT only for a time.”Amor fati: Nietzsche's love of fate and affirmation of all existenceNietzsche's ideal of desire without satisfaction: “desiring to desire”Dangers of epithumic (need-based, consuming) love“Love cannot abide. Its shelf life is shorter than a two-year-old's toy... If it took an abode, it would die.”Nietzsche's nausea at the weakness and smallness of humanity: “Nausea, nausea... alas, man recurs eternally.”Zarathustra's conditional love: based on worthiness, wisdom, and power“Joy in tearing down has fully supplanted love's delight in what is.”Nietzsche's failure to love the unworthy: “His love fails to encompass the great majority of actually living human beings.”Volf's theological critique of striving, superiority, and contempt“Nietzsche affirms vitality at the expense of concrete human beings.”The biblical God's love: “He makes his sun rise on the evil and the good.”“Even the poorest fisherman rows with golden oars.”Jesus's unconditional love versus Nietzsche's agonistic, conditional loveKierkegaard and Luther on the distinction between person and workHannah Arendt's political anthropology and enduring love in the face of unworthinessVolf's proposal for a theology of loving the present world in its broken form“We can actually long also for what we have.”“Love that cannot take an abode will die.”A vision of divine, presuppositionless love that neither requires need nor merit

To hear more, visit wisdomofcrowds.live“ ‘Barbarism' is a word that keeps coming to my lips lately,” writes Damir Marusic in a brilliant new article this week. Barbarism seems to be the only real word that describes what comes after the liberal international order. But Damir isn't pointing to the supposed barbarism of our enemies. His article points to the ways that we in the West — and in the United States — are becoming coarser and more egocentric. Like the poet said, barbarism begins at home. Shadi Hamid interrogates Damir about his piece in Socratic fashion. Is Damir maybe making a moral equivalence between the Trumpist Right and the hapless Left? While it's true that the Left isn't very effective, it can hardly be said to be barbaric. In the course of his answer, Damir discusses Alligator Alcatraz as the symbol of new American barbarism: kind of silly, but also, openly cruel. For Damir, barbarism isn't just Nazism; it is the strong turn toward selfishness and narcissism that has taken place since the middle of the twentieth century. And he has a theory of why the turn took place: secularization and the death of God. On this point, Shadi agrees, but he still has questions. Is it political structures or innate nature that make us turn toward evil? If it is the former, how can politics help in this moment to keep us from becoming truly barbaric? It is a timely and intense conversation.In our bonus section for paid subscribers, Damir and Shadi discuss why “war is a force that gives us meaning”; Shadi compares violence to orgasms; Damir's Calvinist sympathies make an appearance; Damir opposes “vulgar Nietzscheanism” with a “moral law” forged out of our “broken humanity”; Shadi wonders if Damir has finally become a moralist; can morality survive Pax Americana?; Gaza and barbarism; Christopher Hitchens and faith; the origin of the phrase, “Beyond the pale”; and more!Required Reading:* Damir, “Back to Barbarism” (WoC).* Thérèse Delpech, Savage Century: Back to Barbarism (Amazon). * Curzio Malaparte, Kaputt (Amazon). * Friedrich Nietzsche, “The Parable of the Madman” (Fordham University).

Raději lež než nejistotu? Filozofie prevence a rizika

Jakou roli hraje riziko v našem morálním rozhodování? Už sám fakt, že riziko je relativně nové slovo, mnohé napovídá. Ve starověké filozofii se pracovalo s náhodou, možností, s týché – neuchopitelnou souhrou okolností. Až moderní doba proměnila nejistotu v něco měřitelného, pravděpodobného, plánovatelného.Riziko se stalo strukturou. Vyhovuje to naší potřebě jistoty, jak dokládá známá historka z druhé světové války: poté, co ekonom Kenneth Arrow upozornil americkou armádu, že její meteorologické předpovědi jsou bezcenné, dostal odpověď: „Ale to my víme, že nefungují. Ale stejně je potřebujeme – pro plánování.“Podle Bernarda Williamse se iracionální touha po racionalizaci otiskla i do moderní etiky. V novověku se formulovaly morální systémy sestávající z povinností, které mají platit obecně a vždy, nehledě na leccos, co jednající nemůže ovlivnit, nehledě na členitý terén života. Podle Williamse to jsou pokrytecké systémy odpoutané od života: předstíráme, že se řídíme něčím, co ve skutečnosti ignorujeme a co je dobré maximálně pro filozofický seminář a moralizování.Britský filozof to ilustruje na fenoménu morálního štěstí. Tím se rozumí situace, kdy je člověk považován za morálně dobrého (nebo špatného) na základě okolností, které nemá pod kontrolou. Jinými slovy: může být třeba chválen za to, že shodou okolností stál na správné straně. Podle většiny moderních morálních teorií by něco takového nemělo existovat – člověk má být hodnocen pouze za to, co učinil vědomě a svobodně. Williams však namítá, že pokud bychom tuto podmínku vzali vážně, mohli bychom morálně hodnotit máloco. Ani náš charakter, výchova či sklony nejsou výlučně naším dílem. Ať si to připouštíme nebo ne, ve skutečnosti hodnotíme druhé i podle toho, jestli prostě měli štěstí.Vezměte si příklad slavného burzovního makléře: opustí pětičlennou rodinu, nechá ji nezajištěnou a odjíždí na Tahiti, protože chce malovat. Kdyby mu jeho risk nevyšel, byl by sobec. Ale protože mu risk vyjde – ten muž se jmenuje Paul Gaugin –, jeho úspěch jej zpětně aspoň zčásti ospravedlní. Není to skandální?Je. Etika je skandální. V etice totiž nejde o to, jestli plníme pravidla. V etice neodpovídáme jen za to, co je správné, ale také na to, kým jsme a jak chceme žít. Zatímco morálka nás vyzývá k poslušnosti vůči neosobním pravidlům, etika se ptá na smysl a na to, kým jsme. Bernard Williams nás vrací k tomu, že etika nezačíná pravidlem, ale životem. Součástí etického života je proto i odvaha. A ta s sebou nese ochotu riskovat. Za to nám ale zprvu málokdo zatleská. Čeká se, zda uspějeme. Jestli ano, budeme spíše za hrdiny; jestli ne, za padouchy. Nemorální? Možná. Ale takoví jsme.KapitolyI. Raději lež než nejistotu! [počátek až 15:35]II. Skutečné riziko? Vytvořit z nejistoty vnitřní katastrofu [15:35 až 32:50]III.

Today we're diving into the controversial and provocative ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche who boldly declared "God is dead," challenging the very foundation of Christian belief. In the late 19th century, as the world embraced the rational and reasoned approach to all things, Nietzsche called for a radical consistency of thought: without God, there can be no inherent morality, no ultimate meaning, and no divine purpose. He envisioned a humanity, that creates new values and meaning, rejecting the moral and spiritual truths that Christianity upholds. In every way, Nietzsche's idea sits in direct contradiction to Christ. Yet, in the 21st Century, the predominant worldview still tries to keep a foot in both camps. We like the sense of right & wrong, of the sacred, of looking out for those less fortunate than ourselves, of purpose beyond ourselves . . . and yet this is all founded in Abrahamic traditions and diametrically opposed to what Nietzche advances.

In this podcast, we will be talking about 10 life lessons from the philosophy of Fyodor Dostoevsky. Fyodor Dostoevsky was a 19th century novelist and philosopher and is considered to be one of the first writers to incorporate concepts of what we now know as existentialism. So with that in mind, here are 10 life lessons from the philosophy of Fyodor Dostoevsky -  01. Excessive self-pride leads to isolation 02. Be better for yourself, not for other people 03. It's more important to live life, than to think about life 04. Emotional intelligence is as insightful as rationality 05. Love life more than its meaning 06. Be virtuous and just 07. Fight evil with love and compassion 08. Moral freedom is no freedom at all 09. Compassion and love can break alienation 10. Learn to enjoy suffering I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope these 10 life lessons from the philosophy of Fyodor Dostoevsky will add value to your life.  Fyodor Dostoevsky was a 19th century novelist and philosopher, considered by many to be one of the most influential authors in all of world literature. Born and raised in Tsarist Russia, Dostoevsky was heavily exposed to the misery and injustice characteristic of his time. Among his more marking experiences, he spent four years in a Siberian labour camp, went through compulsory military service in exile, and had to beg for money while in Western Europe due to his gambling addiction. And yet, despite his first-hand experience of misery and suffering, Dostoevsky remained hopeful and optimistic about what life is. He is considered to be one of the first writers to incorporate concepts of what we now know as existentialism. Dostoevsky's works revolve around a few major themes like the meaning of life, the constancy of suffering, the divide between rationality and emotion, spirituality, and the various sides of the human condition.  Some of his well known novels and essays are Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, The Idiot, and Notes from the Underground. Through his novels and essays, Dostoevsky tried to make sense of the suffering and misery around him, attempting to find meaning and hope even in the bleakest of times. His work represents a deep dive into human suffering, the evil surrounding us, and the problems caused by moral corruption and in each of the universes he created, he gave ways to escape the apparent  constant suffering and torment of his characters through moral virtue, love, compassion, and one's own sense of meaning. His writings were heavily influential for the existentialist current of philosophy, representing sources of inspiration for other consecrated authors like Friedrich Nietzsche and Jean-Paul Sartre.

"There was once a wise, spiritual master who was the ruler of a small but prosperous domain and who was known for his selfless devotion to his people. As his people flourished and grew in number, the bounds of this small domain spread and with it the need to trust implicitly the emissaries he sent to ensure the safety of its ever more distant parts. It was not just that it was impossible for him personally to order all that needed to be dealt with: as he wisely saw, he needed to keep his distance from, and remain ignorant of, such concerns. And so he nurtured and trained carefully his emissaries, in order that they could be trusted.Eventually, however, his cleverest and most ambitious vizier, the one he trusted most to do his work, began to see himself as the master, and used his position to advance his own wealth and influence. He saw his master's temperance and forbearance as weakness, not influence, and on his missions on his master's behalf, adopted his mantle as his own - the emissary became contemptuous of his master. And so it came about that the master was usurped, the people were duped, the domain became a tyranny; and eventually it collapsed in ruins." - Friedrich NietzscheIf you've ever listened to The Culture Matters Podcast before, then you know that the sayings and philosophies of Friedrich Nietzsche are a staple of this program.  On today's episode, our very own Jay Doran is having a look at the above quote  and breaking it down to take a deeper dive into the relationships that exist between mentors and mentees as well as people in a position of authority and their subordinates.  They say people don't leave their jobs, they leave their bosses and a lot of it has to do with a lack of investment in those employees.  There is a lot to unpack in this episode and we are here for absolutely all of it on this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

The great divide in politics is all around us. Sometimes the best way to engage in a difference of opinion is to 'pass it by.' Political theorist Shalini Satkunanandan suggests we take that lesson from Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy. Yeah, that guy — the one most known for his wrestling with nihilism. Satkunanandan argues that the constant need to engage and correct, refute or criticize "is making partisan divides even more pronounced." She views Nietzsche's method as a valuable way to navigate the highly polarized discourse of today. *This episode originally aired on Jan. 20, 2025.

När gud är död och inga absoluta värden går att luta sig emot, vad ska människan göra då? Den tysk-schweiziske filosofen Friedrich Nietzsche (1849-1900) placerade människan i just detta tillstånd – och skrev en både livsbejakande och uppfordrande filosofi som svar. Nietzsche ville att människan skulle bejaka både livskraft och mörker, och ställde höga krav på hennes kraft och moraliska omdöme. Vad går Nietzsches mest inflytelserika teorier ut på? Och vad kan hans tankar säga oss idag? Bildningspodden ger en introduktion till Nietzsches liv och verk, från ungdomsåren och genombrottet med Tragedins födelse (1872) till det ökända sammanbrottet i Turin 1889 och de sista febriga fragmenten.

In this episode of the Ideology Podcast, Drew and Mick reflect on an unexpected and encouraging trend in American spirituality—particularly among Gen Z. Despite cultural decline in church affiliation in recent decades, new data shows a surprising and significant reversal: a growing hunger for Jesus among young adults.Why is this happening? What has shifted in our culture, and how do we understand it biblically and pastorally? Drew and Mick unpack the factors driving this trend, including the spiritual void left by secularism, the collapse of the "secular gospel," and the longing for connection, meaning, and transcendence. They reflect on how the pandemic acted as an accelerant, exposing the bankruptcy of materialism and opening hearts to the eternal.Along the way, they explore deep theological themes like the nature of sin, the loss of self apart from God, and the hope found only in the person of Jesus Christ. Drawing from thinkers like Augustine and Athanasius, they articulate a vision of Christian anthropology that contrasts starkly with the self-focused, therapeutic culture of our time.This is an episode about revival, not in hype but in real hunger—and how the Church can be a winsome life raft rather than a culture warrior on a sinking ship.Connect with us:Email: ideologypc@gmail.comYoutube/Instagram: @ideologypcFeel free to share, subscribe, rate, and/or comment.Resources referenced or alluded to:On the Incarnation by AthanasiusConfessions by AugustineThe Abolition of Man by C.S.

In this extended extract from their series 'Conversations in Philosophy', part of the LRB's Close Readings podcast, Jonathan Rée and James Wood look at one of Friedrich Nietzsche's early essays, 'Schopenhauer as Educator'. For Nietzsche, Schopenhauer's genius lay not in his ideas but in his heroic indifference, a thinker whose value to the world is as a liberator rather than a teacher, who shows us what philosophy is really for: to forget what we already know. ‘Schopenhauer as Educator' was written in 1874, when Nietzsche was 30, and was published in a collection with three other essays – on Wagner, David Strauss and the use of history – that has come to be titled Untimely Meditations. Jonathan and James consider the essays together and their powerful attack on the ethos of the age, railing against the greed and power of the state, fake art, overweening science, the triviality of universities and the deification of success.James Wood is a contributor to the LRB and staff writer at The New Yorker, whose books include The Broken Estate, How Fiction Works and a novel, Upstate.Jonathan Rée is a writer, philosopher and regular contributor to the LRB whose books include Witcraft and A Schoolmaster's War.To listen to the rest of this episode and all our other Close Readings series, sign up;In Apple Podcasts: https://lrb.me/nietzscheapplecrIn other podcast apps: https://lrb.me/nietzschesccr Hosted on Acast.

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Apr 3, 2023 Professor Matt McManus returns to Rev Left to discuss his latest book, Nietzsche and the Politics of Reaction: Essays on Liberalism, Socialism, and Aristocratic Radicalism—a provocative collection he edited featuring diverse perspectives on one of the most misunderstood thinkers in modern philosophy. We unpack Friedrich Nietzsche's actual political views, challenge the liberal and fascist misreadings, and explore what the socialist left can critically learn from him. From his attacks on Christianity and herd morality to his complex relationship with nihilism, the death of God, and radical subjectivity—we dive deep into Nietzsche's legacy and wrestle with how the left can engage him without falling into reactionary traps. A rigorous and fascinating conversation for those who want to sharpen their understanding of western philosophy and break free from lazy and shallow interpretations.   Check out more of McManus' work HERE ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio HERE Outro Beat Prod. by flip da hood

If it happened, then it was meant to happen.The great German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche would describe his formula for human greatness as amor fati—a love of fate. “That one wants nothing to be different, not forward, not backwards, not in all eternity. Not merely bear what is necessary, still less conceal it….but love it.”
