Elle marque une rupture avec la culture allemande, ouvre un nouvel horizon pour sa pensée. Cette clarté méditerranéenne devient pour lui le symbole d'une renaissance intellectuelle. - réalisation : Nicolas Berger - invités : Typhaine Morille Agrégée de philosophie et professeure en CPGE A/L (Joliot-Curie, Nanterre), Membre du GIRN (Groupe International de Recherches sur Nietzsche) ; Ivan Butel Philosophe, réalisateur, documentariste; Philippe Granarolo Docteur d'État ès-Lettres en philosophie, écrivain, conférencier

In this episode I talked with Dr. Stephen Hicks. Dr. Hicks is a philosophy professor and author. He has taught many classes at Peterson Academy including ones on Logic, Postmodern Philosophy, and Modern Philosophy.  In this conversation we discussed Friedrich Nietzsche's ethical philosophy, why he hated egalitarianism, if he was a narcissist, and why most people in the West operate out of Nietzsche's philosophy without knowing it.

In this solo episode of Psyche, I reflect on a provocative article by Manu Bazzano titled Against Integration. Bazzano challenges one of the deepest assumptions in modern psychotherapy—the idea that the goal of therapy is to integrate the self into a unified whole. Drawing on philosophical currents influenced by thinkers like Friedrich Nietzsche as well as Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, he invites us to consider whether the human psyche might be better understood as a multiplicity rather than a singular identity.In this episode, I explore why I find Bazzano's work so compelling while also sitting with the tension it creates for me as a practicing therapist. On one hand, I resonate deeply with the critique of reducing a person to a single, unified self. Anyone who has spent time in a therapy room knows that human beings are complex, contradictory, and often composed of multiple voices pulling in different directions.At the same time, I also wrestle with a practical question that emerges both in my own life and in the lives of my clients: is a radically multiple self actually livable? When identity becomes too fragmented, people often experience anxiety, instability, and the unsettling feeling that they are not really a self at all.Rather than choosing between the ideal of perfect integration and the chaos of pure multiplicity, I explore the possibility that psychological health might lie somewhere in between. Perhaps the task of therapy is not to eliminate our inner plurality but to learn how to negotiate among the different parts of ourselves—creating enough coherence to live meaningfully while still honoring the multiplicity that makes us human.This episode is less about settling the debate and more about dwelling inside the tension. Because sometimes the most important conversations in psychology are the ones that refuse to offer easy answers.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with K.R. Wilson about his novel, Stan on Guard (Guernica Editions, 2026). Ishtanu (call him Stan) is a Hittite immortal keeping his head down in Toronto and recounting some of his experiences. Tróán is an immortal Trojan princess who thought she'd killed Stan in post-war Berlin but who now knows he survived. Yes, technically Stan can die. He has just managed not to for 3200 years. As their stories braid together toward a final reckoning they take us through, among other things, a subversive retelling of the Odysseus story, the resistance of pagan Lithuania against Papal crusaders, the decline of Friedrich Nietzsche in a German clinic, the arts scene in belle epoque Paris, and the descent of Europe into the horrors of the Great War. Strap in. Stan On Guard is the follow-up to K. R. Wilson's tragical-comical-historical novel Call Me Stan: A Tragedy in Three Millennia, which was long-listed for the 2022 Leacock Medal for Humour. K. R. Wilson's novel An Idea About My Dead Uncle won the inaugural Guernica Prize in 2018, and his novel Call Me Stan was long-listed for the 2022 Leacock Medal.

Während der unglückseligen Corona-Jahren erlebten wir einen „Winterschlaf der Kultur“, wie es Friedrich Nietzsche genannt hätte. Für alle Kunstformen, die sich direkt an ein Publikum wenden wollten, gab es einen Lockdown, regierungskritische Töne wurden bekämpft. Für viele Künstler ging es ums Überleben. Obendrein stellte sich ihnen die Frage, mit welchen künstlerischen Mitteln sie die drängenden Themen verarbeiten sollten. Eugen Zentner hält die Form der Kurzgeschichte für besonders geeignet, um innere Kämpfe darzustellen, die die Helden an einen Punkt bringen, von dem aus sie auf den „Boden ihrer Existenz schauen. Es ist ein Punkt größter Verzweiflung“. Er bringt dafür Beispiele aus seiner Sammlung „Corona-Schicksale“ und spricht über die Entwicklung der modernen Kurzgeschichte, in der die Situation selber zum eigentlichen Protagonisten wird. In seinem Buch „Kunst und Kultur gegen den Strom“ stellt er Künstler vor, die sich keinen Maulkorb umbinden ließen. Einige davon waren schon bei „Unter Freunden“ zu Gast. Das Archiv dieser Sendereihe ist – wie auch das Buch von Eugen Zentner – ein Tummelplatz der kritischen Kunstszene, die eine bemerkenswerte Vielseitigkeit aufweist und – wie an den Kurzgeschichten von Zentner deutlich wird – den ernsthaften Willen hat, nicht nur als Protokoll der laufenden Ereignisse zu dienen, sondern sich als Kunst mit einem Eigenwert zu behaupten.

In 1924, two wealthy, brilliant University of Chicago students set out to commit what they believed would be the perfect crime.Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb believed themselves intellectually superior and beyond ordinary moral restraint. Inspired (and deeply misreading) the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, they convinced themselves that rules applied to other people.It became the first true Trial of the Century. A national referendum on free will, punishment, privilege, youth, psychology, and whether the state should answer killing with killing.Were Leopold and Loeb supermen?Or were they privileged, deluded young men who mistook intelligence for immunity?

Sustentar o indizível, habitar a esperaLou Andreas-Salomé, amiga de Sigmund Freud e interlocutora de Friedrich Nietzsche, Paul Rée e Rainer Maria Rilke, foi uma intelectual radicalmente à frente de seu tempo. Não apenas por sua vida afetiva pouco convencional, mas pela densidade de sua elaboração teórica, ainda hoje desafiadora. Resgatada do relativo ostracismo por Ricardo Hirata e Luciana Borghi, Lou reaparece como um vértice fundamental entre psicanálise e teatro, devolvida à cena como pensamento vivo e não como figura silenciada, a margem na história desses grandes homens.Ao lê-la pela via sensível proposta por Ricardo Hirata e Luciana Borghi, não encontramos apenas uma figura histórica, mas uma posição subjetiva que interpela a clínica. Lou sustenta o desejo sem ceder à pressa do sentido; tolera o não saber, mesmo quando isso implica solidão e perda de garantias.Nesse ponto, aproxima-se de Wilfred Bion: o que ele conceitua como capacidade negativa, ela vive como ética, permanecer na incerteza sem recorrer a explicações apaziguadoras. Sua escrita transforma intensidade emocional em pensamento, confiando radicalmente no tempo psíquico.Também Rilke converge aí: viver as perguntas antes de respondê-las. Lou, Rilke e Bion consentem em habitar o desconhecido. Clinicamente, isso nos convoca a uma escuta capaz de sustentar o silêncio, reconhecendo que onde não há resposta imediata há pensamento em gestação. N/M

Meta von Salis (1855–1929) war eine der frühesten und konsequentesten Stimmen für politische Gleichberechtigung in der Schweiz. Bereits 1887 forderte sie öffentlich das Frauenstimmrecht – Jahrzehnte bevor es 1971 eingeführt wurde.Doch ihr Ansatz war bemerkenswert: Sie argumentierte nicht aus kollektiver Empörung, sondern aus staatsbürgerlicher Verantwortung. Für sie beruhte Gleichberechtigung auf Bildung, Urteilskraft und Charakter. Nicht das Geschlecht, sondern die geistige Reife entscheide über politische Würde.In dieser Folge geht es um eine oft übersehene Pionierin, ihre Beziehung zu Friedrich Nietzsche, ihre Entwicklung im Spannungsfeld von Liberalismus und Nationaldenken – und die Frage, was ihr radikal individueller Ansatz heute noch bedeutet.Eine Folge über Freiheit, Verantwortung und die Ernsthaftigkeit politischer Mündigkeit.

Tell me if this makes sense… We live in a world today characterized by a fetishized pornographic addiction to rape. If it were not so, Law & Order: SVU wouldn’t have made it past a single season – let alone, into SYNdication for nearly 30 years…! I loathe Adorno and the CULTural Marxists who SYNthesized (read: weaponized) Marx and Freud to the general detriment of mankind, beginning with the ‘West’. But, he raised some legit points, as often the baddies do. It’s their SOLUTIONS we all need be wary of. For nigh on 100 years, we’ve basked in the jaundiced glow of the Frankfurt School, as legions of university students continue having their minds and spirits poisoned in the name of ‘Progress’. See also the ancient Roman Collegium, a concept dating back to (at least) the days of Plato – who, incidentally, literally wrote the book on The Republic. I digress… In Adorno’s “Fetish-character” essay, he states, a fetish is a substitute object of desire.[1] I would submit that in the latent undercurrent of this Nietzschean ‘power-evolving universe’ of today’s America; men and women, by and large, secretly harbor a craven desire for rape. It sounds crazy! Until one considers the popularity of Law & Order: SVU for the last 27 years. America is Kung-Fu LARPing, with each new iteration of the ‘fetish substitute object of desire’ further blurring the lines between fantasy and reality (schizoaffective disorder) as we creep ever closer to the Chaos Magick of bringing these secret desires to life. But, beware; LARPing has consequences.[2] The Epstein Saga has been publicly ongoing for 2+ decades. More than a thousand witnesses have come forward – including dozens who’ve accused Trump (E. Jean Carroll) – and yet, only Epstein and Maxwell have been ‘brought to justice’. Speaking of ‘justice’, Thomas Massie probably said it best:[3] Congress created the Department of Justice, Congress funds the Department of Justice, and Congress is responsible for the oversight of the Department of Justice. When will we see justice? I’ll tell you what I’ve not seen. I’ve not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein Files – over 3 million documents describing horrible things, describing unspeakable things, much of it redacted. Over two dozen people have resigned; CEOS, members of government, worldwide. But, I haven’t seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States, from this Department of Justice. Prince Andrew, Duke of York, who has since been stripped of his royalty, his royal titles, due to his affiliation with Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested. Peter Mandelson, who previously served as UK’s Ambassador to the United States, resigned in disgrace from United Kingdom’s House of Lords and the Labor Party, and he’s been arrested. Former Prime Minister of Norway Thorbjorn Jagland has been charged. But, we don’t see any charges, arrests, or investigations in the United States. What do we see? We see our FBI Director celebrating in the locker room at the Olympics overseas. It’s fine to be proud of this country. But, we should be proud of this country because we have a system of justice that works. And yet we do not. … We need justice. We want the Department of Justice to get to work, and that’s what they need to do – now. The Trump (45/47) DOJ is unwilling to rat itself out – and so are the other 77+ million co-conspirators… And then there’s the 77 million co-conspirators who voted for Epstein’s best friend Trump as many as three times, knowing he’d been accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, and even after he was found liable for sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll. For 77 million men and women it was not a dealbreaker! He rapes, but he saves. He saves more than he rapes … but he probably does rape.[4] Considering the aforementioned, what would be crazy is not acknowledging America’s fetishized pornographic addiction to rape – which is precisely what we’re doing. We are gaslighting ourselves at this point, as we turn a blind eye to our own culpability. After all – on the eve of America’s 250th Anniversary of Independence – wasn’t this always to be a government of, by, and for The People…? 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; …21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, …24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: …26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. — Romans 1:18, 21–22, 24, 26–32 KJV 4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: [and] again I say, Rejoice.5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord [is] at hand.6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things. — Philippians 4:4–8 KJV #Links Clips [1:58] Etymology (the origins of words) was taken out of schools in the early 1900’s for a reason.

The actor wore what she described as a “prosthetic [redacted]” in her recent movie The Testament of Ann Lee, as she revealed in a Feb. 25 interview with BBC’s The Scott Mills Breakfast Show. “This movie, it needed to be graphic, so, like, I had a prosthetic [redacted],” she said in a clip posted to Instagram, which understandably perplexed Mills himself. When pressed for more details, she surprisingly had a rave review about the experience. “It was cool. It was exciting.” Seyfried plays the real-life Ann Lee, a Christian woman in 18th-century Great Britain who viewed herself as a representative of God and eventually founded a religious sect called Shakers, with the film capturing her group’s move across the pond to New York during the Colonial era. Son of megachurch pastor sentenced after horrific materials found at home ‘among worst investigators have seen’ An Indiana megachurch once known for preaching purity and sexual morality has found itself at the center of a scandal that has shaken a congregation, rattled political allies, and ended with a six-year prison sentence. Jonathan Peternel, 24, of Pendleton, was sentenced Friday after pleading guilty in January to one Level 4 felony count of child exploitation and three felony counts of possession of child sexual abuse material. The case drew intense public scrutiny not only because of the disturbing evidence uncovered by investigators, but because his father, Nathan Peternel, remains listed as lead pastor at Life Church and is a longtime mentor and close associate of Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith. Why Viewers Say You Should Watch ‘Nymphomaniac’ Alone Due to Its Graphic Scenes Both volumes of Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac are streaming on Netflix in the U.S., and its return to an easy, familiar platform has revived a warning that has followed the film since 2013: ‘Watch this one by yourself.‘ … So why does this movie come with a warning like that? The movie’s name actually answers that on its own. The term nymphomania is used to classify someone who has an uncontrollable compulsion toward sex, and that is exactly what the film follows across 2 volumes and 8 chapters. It opens with a woman named Joe, found beaten in an alley. A man named Seligman brings her home, and she begins telling him the story of her life from her earliest sexual memories through decades of escalating need. Von Trier was telling the story of a woman whose entire life is shaped by a compulsion she cannot control. … The discomfort the audience feels isn’t incidental. It’s the mechanism. Von Trier built the film so that watching it puts you closer to Joe’s experience than any non-explicit version ever could. The surface reading is addiction… What Joe is actually chasing is not sex but connection. Every encounter she describes to Seligman moves her further from other people rather than closer to them. Sex becomes the thing she reaches for because the thing she actually needs keeps slipping out of range. That distance between the act and the need behind it is where von Trier plants the real story. The compulsion is real, but the loneliness underneath it is what he keeps circling back to. He called this technique “Digressionism,” a term he coined to describe a storytelling style that deliberately wanders away from its own plot. He cited Marcel Proust as an influence. Nymphomaniac is the final film in what von Trier and critics call the Depression Trilogy. Following Antichrist in 2009 and Melancholia in 2011. After years infiltrating child exploitation rings, expert reveals an even DARKER American underworld | Blaze Media Demons in the Headlines EXPOSED: The War for Power and Souls in D.C. | Strange Encounters | Ep 29 – YouTube [31:30–33:26] Back to the politics piece; everybody within politics – even if they disagree with exploitation or whatever – they show partiality. And, I believe it’s, is it second Peter? … It says, ‘where partiality exists, exists every form of deceit and evil’. We can look it up … but I think that’s it. But, where partiality exists, exists all forms of evil. ***[Did he mean this passage?]For where envying and strife [is], there [is] confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, [and] easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. – James 3:16–17 KJV*** And, what is happening in our political world that I’ve that I’ve seen now is; you have career politicians – even if they claim to be Christians – they sell access. And, it might be access to conservative organizations. But, they sell access – and they’re partial to donors. … they’re unbelievably partial. And, they’re partial to their ‘club’, as opposed to the people they’re elected to represent. And, you have a bureaucracy that’s in place, and you have these elitists that are in place, that think that they can buy – because they have been able to buy your position – buy you, buy access to you, or buy access to somebody else, and ‘own’ – in this case, a US Senator, what I’m running for. But, it’s across the board for everything; Congressmen, even the President … Everything’s for sale. And, it’s ‘access’ that they’re selling, right? And, that’s the thing that stood out to me the most; partiality. More proof / Trump-Epstein Saga DOJ’s Epstein Files Screwups Get Worse With Unredacted Nudes and Images of Kids The Justice Department is under fire after newly released Jeffrey Epstein case materials reportedly included unredacted nude images and photos involving minors. Analysis by CNN uncovered nearly 100 explicit pictures of two naked young women on a beach, the news outlet reported. The materials also included photos showing a young girl kissing Epstein on the cheek. At least one unredacted image depicted Epstein alongside a nude female, and additional selfie-style nude photos of at least two other unidentified females were also published, with their ages unclear, according to CNN. Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which Congress passed and President Trump signed in late November, the DOJ is obligated to omit sexually explicit imagery and anything that might identify victims. The images have now been redacted.

When will we see justice? I’ll tell you what I’ve not seen. I’ve not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein Files – over 3 million documents describing horrible things, describing unspeakable things – much of it redacted. Over two dozen people have resigned; CEOs, members of government, worldwide. But, I haven’t seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States, from this Department of Justice. Prince Andrew, Duke of York, who has since been stripped of his royalty, his royal titles, due to his affiliation with Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested. Peter Mandelson, Who previously served as UK’s Ambassador to the United States, resigned in disgrace from United Kingdom’S House of Lords and the Labor Party, and he’s been arrested. Former Prime Minister of Norway, Thorbjorn Jagland has been charged. But, we don’t see any charges, arrests, or investigations in the United States. What do we see? We see our FBI Director celebrating in the locker room at the Olympics overseas. It’s fine to be proud of this country. But, we should be proud of this country because we have a system of justice that works. And yet we do not. Who are the men that should be investigated? I’ll name them right here. Leon Black; you don’t even have to see past the redactions to see that this man needs to be investigated. Jess Staley; accused of terrible things, it’s right there in the files. Why is he not being investigated? And, Leslie Wexner; why did the FBI list him as a co-conspirator in their own documents in a child sex trafficking case, and then tell him, according to him, that they had no questions for him? Why is that? Well, the Epstein Files Transparency Act requires the DOJ and the FBI to disclose to us their internal memos and emails about how they made those decisions, whether to prosecute or not prosecute. Yet, they have not delivered those memos. And, we still don’t have the memos and documents and emails from 2008, to explain why Jeffrey Epstein was given such a light sentence in what would have been an open and shut case of child sex trafficking, which allowed him to go back and recommit these terrible crimes, create hundreds of more victims, and ensnare so many other people in his conspiracy. Where are those documents that describe those decisions? We need justice. We want the Department of Justice to get to work, and that’s what they need to do – now!

Live-Podcast vom 19. Januar 2026 mit Prof. Dr. Christiane Tietz (Kirchenpräsidentin Evangelische Kirche in Hessen und Nassau), moderiert von Prof. Dr. Thorsten Dietz und Dr. Andreas Loos (Fokus Theologie und Podcast „Geist.Zeit“) sowie Dr. Helge Bezold (Evangelische Akademie Frankfurt). Was bedeutet Glaube heute? Und warum lohnt es sich, trotz Zweifel und Kritik zu glauben? In ihrem neuen Buch über Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900) geht die Theologin und EKHN-Kirchenpräsidentin Christiane Tietz diesen Fragen nach. Ihre These: Obwohl der Philosoph das Christentum radikal infrage stellte, lebte und dachte er fortwährend in dessen Bann. Darüber – und über ihre Sicht auf das Glauben und Zweifeln – spricht Tietz im Rahmen eines Live-Podcasts von „Geist.Zeit“ mit Thorsten Dietz und Andreas Loos von der Fachstelle Fokus Theologie aus Zürich.

Scham gilt oft als etwas Banales. Als Verlegenheit. Als peinlicher Moment. Als soziale Korrektur. In dieser Folge gehe ich an einen Punkt, an dem diese Erklärung zerbricht. „Ich schäme mich – also bin ich" ist keine provokante Formel. Es ist eine existentielle Beobachtung. Scham entsteht dort, wo ein Mensch sich selbst als wirklich erlebt. Als sichtbar. Als wirksam. Als jemand, der Raum einnimmt. Genau deshalb ist Scham kein Zeichen von fehlendem Selbstwert, sondern ein Hinweis darauf, dass Eigenwert längst gespürt wird. Ich spreche über eine Form von Scham, die im Coaching selten benannt wird. Eine Scham, die nichts mit Verhalten zu tun hat. Keine Grenzscham. Keine moralische Scham. Sondern eine Scham vor der eigenen Lebendigkeit. Vor Größe. Vor Klarheit. Vor Wirkung. Vor dem eigenen Gewicht im Raum. Diese Folge verbindet mentale Intelligenz mit existenzieller Tiefe. Mentale Gesundheit zeigt sich hier nicht als Optimierungsprojekt, sondern als Beziehung zum eigenen Sein. Selbstermächtigung beginnt an der Stelle, an der Menschen aufhören, ihren Rückzug mit „fehlendem Selbstwert" zu erklären, und beginnen, die Angst vor den Konsequenzen ihres inneren Wissens zu betrachten. Ich spanne den Bogen von Philosophie zu früher Prägung. Jean-Paul Sartre beschreibt Scham als Moment des Gesehenwerdens. Max Scheler versteht Scham als Schutzreaktion des Selbst. Donald Winnicott zeigt, wie Kinder lernen, ihre Lebendigkeit zu dämpfen, um Beziehung zu sichern. Brené Brown trennt Schuld von Scham und macht sichtbar, wie Identität unter Druck gerät. Friedrich Nietzsche öffnet den Blick auf eine Gesellschaft, die Abweichung moralisiert und Anpassung belohnt. Diese Perspektiven führen zu einer unbequemen Erkenntnis: Viele Menschen leiden nicht an Wertlosigkeit. Sie leiden an Existenzscham. An der frühen Erfahrung, dass ihr eigentliches Wesen zu viel sein könnte. Diese Folge ist ein Perspektivwechsel mit Widerstand. Sie spricht über Transformationsprozesse, die dort beginnen, wo Menschen aufhören, sich selbst zu verkleinern, um kompatibel zu bleiben. Sie richtet sich an Menschen, die spüren, dass sie längst wissen, wer sie sind, und die bereit sind, die innere Logik ihrer Scham zu verstehen. Keine Anleitung. Kein Wohlfühlformat. Ein Gespräch über Scham als Tor zur Wahrheit. Hier geht es zum Buch: https://buchshop.bod.de/ Jan, der moderne Skalde - Worte, die wirken! Ich bin Jan Schmiedel, ein moderner Skalde. Meine Reise ist meine Botschaft – eine Suche nach Klarheit, Wahrheit und dem Mut, sich selbst zu begegnen. In einer Welt, die dich mit Erwartungen und Lärm überflutet, glaube ich daran, dass wahre Freiheit nur entsteht, wenn du bereit bist, deine eigene Dunkelheit zu durchschreiten und dein Licht zu entdecken. Hier geht es nicht um Perfektion, sondern um Authentizität. Nicht darum, zu gefallen, sondern darum, zu erkennen, wer du wirklich bist. Ich lade dich ein, die Ketten zu sprengen, die du dir selbst angelegt hast, und den Weg zu gehen, der nur dir gehört. Gemeinsam erforschen wir die Pfade, die zu deinem wahren Selbst führen. Es geht nicht darum, etwas zu tun – es geht darum, zu sein. Zu fühlen. Zu wachsen. Die Weisheit liegt nicht in der Antwort, sondern in der Frage, die du dir selbst stellst. Wenn du bereit bist, die Masken fallen zu lassen und dich deiner eigenen Wahrheit zu stellen, begleite ich dich. Nicht als Lehrer, sondern als Weggefährte. Dein Licht und deine Freiheit sind keine Ziele – sie sind bereits in dir. Mein Weg hat mich dazu gebracht, dass ich eine schwere Depression mit suizidalität und einer komplexern Traumafolgestörung selber geheilt habe. Willst du mehr über diesen Weg erfahren?

Your inner voice can either talk you into your greatness or talk you out of it. That little voice shows up when you're about to take a risk, ask for something you want, or step into a room where you're not sure you belong. Most people either ignore it completely or let it run the show. Neither works. The real question is whether you know how to catch it, redirect it, and make it work for you instead of against you.Amber Lee Forrester built Quartz Wellness Collective on the idea that your inner voice shapes everything about your brand. She works with executives and incarcerated youth, bringing positive psychology and strengths-based coaching into spaces that need psychological safety and honest reflection. Her approach is direct: if you can identify the thought patterns that derail you, you can redirect them toward what you actually want.In this episode, Paula T. Edgar and Amber dig into imposter syndrome, why it shows up even for high-performers, and what to do when that voice tries to take over. Amber breaks down her framework for catching thoughts before they derail you, why reflection matters more than just pushing through, and how to lean on your strengths when your weaknesses try to speak louder. They also talk about why community and psychological safety matter for doing your best work, and what it actually looks like to build a brand that feels like you on purpose. If that voice has ever made you second-guess yourself or shrink back from something you wanted, this conversation gives you tools to shift it.1:33 – Amber's personal brand definition, three ways she describes herself, a Friedrich Nietzsche she often uses, and her Beyoncé hype song 4:27 – The childhood contrast that explains Amber's comfort in very different rooms5:37 – Amber's post-private school pivot from her original plan to her purpose11:25 – Amber's definition of imposter syndrome and an example of how it showed up for her 16:10 – How imposter syndrome affects your brand and the way you show up as a leader19:54 – How positive psychology helps you challenge narratives that undermine your confidence and branding22:40 – The framework Amber uses to move people from self-doubt to self-belief28:14 – Misconception about imposter syndrome, the importance of reflection, and how your answer to a simple question impacts your brand32:27 – Amber's high priority around creating safe community spaces, paving the way for brave spaces36:56 – Strengths-based anchor that helps you stay steady when your mind tries to hold you back42:46 – What Amber does for fun (and how even that ties back into her brand) Mentioned In Rewrite Your Story, Rewire Your Personal Brand with Amber Lee ForresterAmber Lee Forrester Quartz Wellness CollectivePOISED to Prosper Mentorship ProgramMy Engage Your Hustle™ Conference Playbook gives you the strategies to prepare, stand out, and follow up with impact.

Nihilizmus je filozofia, ktorá vznikla v 19. storočí v Rusku. Vyznačuje sa odmietaním morálnych hodnôt alebo myšlienky, že by čokoľvek v živote malo zmysel, a ide ruka v ruke s pesimizmom a skepticizmom. Pojem nihilizmus preslávil ruský autor Ivan Sergejevič Turgenev postavou Bazarova v knihe Otcovia a deti. S nihilizmom je najčastejšie spájaný nemecký filozof Friedrich Nietzsche, autor dobre známych diel ako je napríklad Tak vravel Zarathustra, Antikrist, Genealógia morálky, či Súmrak modiel.

En este episodio exploramos la lectura de Friedrich Nietzsche sobre la tragedia griega en El nacimiento de la tragedia y su diálogo con Freud, Schopenhauer y Hegel. La tragedia aparece como afirmación del dolor, choque de fuerzas y aprendizaje radical para decir sí a la vida.

Neste episódio conduzimos uma instigante viagem pelos labirintos da memória e da nostalgia da infância, cruzando experiências pessoais, cultura pop e grandes reflexões filosóficas para compreender por que tantas vezes desejamos voltar ao passado. Entre diálogos com pensadores como Walter Benjamin e Friedrich Nietzsche, referências a Em Busca do Tempo Perdido e conexões com obras como Ratatouille, Brilho Eterno de uma Mente sem Lembranças e Stranger Things, refletimos sobre como cheiros, músicas, filmes e imagens despertam lembranças involuntárias e revelam que recordar não é simplesmente reviver, mas reconstruir o passado a partir do presente. Ao abordar infância, memória coletiva, arte, ditadura, cultura dos anos 80 e 90 e o medo de esquecer quem fomos, o episódio convida o ouvinte a perceber que a nostalgia pode ser mais do que saudade: pode ser também uma forma crítica e sensível de compreender a si mesmo e o tempo em que vive.

Paul Axton preaches: John combines his description of love and God with his picture of its reversal in the Antichrist. Friedrich Nietzsche, in recommending the Antichrist and his work (a recommendation taken up by the Nazis) depicts the reversal embraced by a German and American Christianity which would hate in the name of Christ. Agape love is the only counter to this demonic form of the faith. (Sign up for "Do Not Let Your Hearts Be Troubled: Perspectives on Peace": This class, with Ethan Vander Leek, examines “peace” from various perspectives: Biblical, theological, philosophical, and inter-religious. We will examine various forms of false peace and ask what peace is positively, its metaphysical and religious status as a concept and as a lived reality. Is peace possible? How is it characterized? How does Jesus make peace? Can difference be understood, lived, and resolved, not in violence and victory but in cooperation and mutuality? We will be guided into such questions by voices past and present, including Augustine, Thomas Merton, Raimon Panikkar, William Desmond, Rowan Williams, and more.

Friedrich Nietzsche liegt ihr zu Füßen, ohne Chancen: Lou Andreas-Salomé ist eine Femme fatale. Die Schriftstellerin und Psychoanalytikerin wird am 12.2.1861 geboren. Von Irene Dänzer-Vanotti.

“So the people of Israel walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on each side!” (Exodus 14:22 NLT) There’s a reason that Exodus 14:22 ends with an exclamation point. “So the people of Israel walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on each side!” (NLT). Imagine how thrilling it must have been for the Israelites to walk through the middle of the Red Sea on dry ground as they followed God’s leading. Maybe they saw fish swimming by in the walls of water on either side of them, like something out of the best aquarium ever. The people of Israel walked for hours. The journey across the basin of the Red Sea took all night. But the Lord was with them every step of the way. No one who crossed the sea that day could have anticipated just how long their eventual journey would take—or where it would lead them. Their experience serves as an excellent illustration of the Christian life. It, too, is just a walk with the Lord. And discipleship is what happens along the way when we prioritize that walk. Often the beginning of the Christian journey is filled with excitement and wonder, as the realization of what God has done for us sinks in. But as was the case with the Israelites during their forty-year journey through the wilderness, the excitement and wonder begin to wane over time. We start to take things for granted. We become apathetic. That’s what happened with people who came to see Jesus during His earthly ministry. After the initial excitement and newness wore off, people began to drift away. They rejected Jesus and His teachings for a variety of reasons (see Matthew 8:34; Mark 6:3; Luke 4:28–29). They became apathetic toward their walk with Him and began to search elsewhere for something new, something different. If you struggle with apathy in your walk with Christ, then you need to prioritize, what I call, your “R.P.G.S.”: (1) Read the Bible every day. You never outgrow it and never get beyond it. God’s Word never becomes irrelevant. (2) Pray about things. Bring things up before the Lord. You need to have a prayer life. (3) Go to church. You need to be a regular part of the church. (4) Share your faith with others. Many believers stop doing these things and then wonder why spiritual apathy is seeping into their lives. It’s because they’re not doing the basics. If you decide not to eat anymore, here’s what will happen: You’ll get lightheaded. You’ll feel almost sick. And if it goes on for a while, you’ll start to die. You can’t live that way. You must eat to survive. In the same way, if you neglect spiritual disciplines, it won’t be long until you start to wither. Friedrich Nietzsche said, “The essential thing ‘in heaven and in earth’ is that there should be long obedience in the same direction.” As Christians, our lives are a walk of faith. We need to keep walking that walk. Reflection question: How can you avoid apathy in your walk with the Lord?

Werner Herzog dirigió Encuentros en el fin del mundo. Se fue en un avión militar a la Antártida y encendió su cámara. Herzog busca la verdad en todas sus obras y en esa ocasión no la encontró en una persona, sino en un pingüino. En un poético fragmento que se viralizó recientemente se observa al animal dirigiéndose solo hacia las montañas. La decisión, que abraza el nihilismo afirmativo de Nietzsche, crea un sentido. Ese pingüino es ya el símbolo de una generación, en busca de grandes retos. Kapital es posible gracias a sus colaboradores:⁠Thenomba⁠.

Seine Religionskritik war bissig und kam mit wuchtigen Worten. Der christliche Glaube war ihm eine gefährliche Illusion, doch hörte er nie auf, im Dunstkreis des Christentums zu denken und sich an der Gottesfrage abzuarbeiten. Es geht in dieser Folge von Geist.Zeit um das Leben und Denken von Friedrich Nietzsche. Thorsten und Andi treffen dazu Christiane Tietz in der Evangelischen Akademie Frankfurt. Sie hat in ihrem neusten Buch gezeigt, wie man Nietzsche empathisch zuhören und mit ihm die schwierigen Fragen diskutieren kann, die das Leben dem Glauben zumutet. Zu drei Fragekomplexen liest die ehemalige Theologieprofessorin kurze Passagen aus ihrem Buch vor, dann geht jeweils das vertiefende Gespräch darüber los. Zunächst stehen die frühen und tragischen Leiderfahrungen Nietzsches im Zentrum. Etliche Jahre fand er Trost im Gedanken eines fürsorglichen Gottes, der seinen Menschen Leid zumutet, dessen Sinn sich dermaleinst im ewigen Leben erschliessen wird. Wie Nietzsche das Leiden zunehmend ohne Gott reflektierte und welch schonungslose Antworten ihm bei der Bewältigung des eigenen Leidens halfen, das wird in diesem ersten Themenblock nachgezeichnet. Die nächste Sequenz beschäftigt sich mit Nietzsches schroffer Kritik des christlichen Mitleids. Was ist dran an seinem Vorwurf, die christliche Liebesethik mach unfähig zur Selbstliebe und hemme die Freude am vitalen, gesunden Leben? In einem dritten Block sprechen die drei Podcaster über Nietzsches radikale und auch schwierige Idee von der ewigen Wiederkehr des Gleichen. Wo liegen die Berechtigung aber auch die Grenze dieser umfassenden Bejahung des Lebens? Nietzsches Antithese zur Hoffnung löst hier die Frage aus, was denn falsches und was gutes Hoffen im christlichen Glauben ist. Abschliessend geht es um die Erfahrungen, die man in der aufrichtigen Beschäftigung mit Nietzsche machen kann. Seine Kritik hat klärende und reinigende Wirkung für den Glauben. Man muss nicht gegen, sondern kann mit Nietzsche um den Glauben ringen und zweifeln. Nur so lassen sich andere Antworten finden und ein Glaube, der sich als tragfähig erweist. Lesen lohnt sich!

In this episode, Megan and Frank explore the prophecies of Nostradamus. Nostradamus was a prophet--but what is a prophet? What should we make of his seemingly accurate predictions of major world events? Do prophetic powers imply that the future is determined? Or are we simply bound to an immovable fate? And what, if anything, does Nostradamus have to tell us about our futures?

Friedrich Nietzsche challenged the modern mind to think bravely, live honestly, and create meaning rather than inherit it

This video explores the theology, philosophy, and Christology of Martin Luther King Jr. I argue that he is best understood as a moderate American Unitarian.I mention Martin Luther King Jr., Martin Luther, Michael King Sr. (Martin Luther King Sr.), Schleiermacher, Paul of Samosata, William Ellery Channing, Paul Tillich, Henry Nelson Wieman, Coretta Scott King, David Hume, Immanuel Kant, Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Karl Jaspers, Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Walter Rauschenbusch, Mahatma Gandhi, Saint Augustine, Saint Anselm, Blaise Pascal, Os Guinness, Keith Ward, Desmond Tutu, Francis Collins, Christopher Hitchens, and more.

Michel Foucault, um dos pensadores mais influentes do século XX, desconstruiu conceitos fundamentais como verdade, poder e sujeito, oferecendo uma visão profundamente cética sobre as instituições e suas estruturas de autoridade. Suas ideias, amplamente difundidas nas universidades e na cultura contemporânea, têm moldado a forma como muitos jovens adventistas enxergam a igreja, suas doutrinas e sua liderança. Foucault não surge isolado. Ele faz parte de um movimento intelectual mais amplo, que inclui Friedrich Nietzsche, Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze e a Escola de Frankfurt. Esses pensadores, cada um a seu modo, questionaram as bases da modernidade, desconstruíram as grandes narrativas e lançaram dúvidas sobre a possibilidade de verdades universais.

Week 40 of Ted Gioia's Immersive Humanities Course brings together three demanding—and deeply philosophical—works: Leo Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan Ilyich, Fyodor Dostoyevsky's The Grand Inquisitor, and Friedrich Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil. But before we get started, I offer a short primer on reading Russian lit. The names can be a real challenge!Tolstoy's novella, written after his spiritual “conversion,” is a devastating meditation on death, meaning, and self-deception—circular in structure but spiraling ever deeper. It may be the finest short work I've read so far. Dostoyevsky's famous parable interrupts the narrative of The Brothers Karamazov to pose unsettling questions about freedom, faith, and institutional power, turning conventional religious assumptions upside down. Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil proved the most challenging: dense, contrary, and deliberately destabilizing, it rejects inherited moral frameworks in favor of examining desire, psychology, and power.

摧毁幻觉的勇气，藏在尼采的这句哲思里今天分享一句来自于弗里德里希・尼采说的过话。“Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.”弗里德里希・尼采是19 世纪德国极具影响力的哲学家、思想家，意志主义哲学的核心代表 —— 以其颠覆性思想深刻重塑了现代哲学、文学与艺术的发展轨迹，尤其为存在主义、后现代主义等重要流派奠定了思想根基。他那句“上帝已死”（God is dead）打破了西方人传统价值的桎梏，而 “权力意志”（Will to Power）与 “超人” 概念，更将生命的自我超越、自主创造与拥抱命运的精神推向极致 —— 就连美国大片中深入人心的 “超人” 形象，其思想源头也正是尼采笔下的理想人格。不过从中也可以看出西方人的一种思维惯性： 推翻上帝这一终极存在后，他们仍执着于用严密逻辑构建新的至高假设。这与中国传统智慧截然不同：从指导农耕的二十四节气，到滋养千年的都江堰水利工程，我们的祖先从未追求抽象的终极真理，而是在无数次观察、实践与总结中凝练规律，以主动探索的姿态参与世界的创造。但无论中西方路径如何迥异，对真相与真理的渴求，始终是人类共通的追求。而这句名言，对于我们学好英语，也有很大帮助。很多同学都深陷一个顽固的幻觉：认为 “背单词越多，口语就越好”。于是陷入恶性循环 —— 表达不出来，便归咎于单词不会，接着疯狂背单词；可背了成千上万个单词，真正交流时依旧张口结舌。背单词带来的即时成就感，让大家沉迷于 “一天 10 个、一月数千” 的数字游戏，却忘了一个关键真相：认识单词不等于掌握单词，真正的 “记住”，是在听力、口语、阅读、写作中能迅速提取、熟练运用。同学们，那些 “每月背几千词” 的执念，那些对单词数量的盲目崇拜，其实都是illusion（幻觉）。英语学习的真相从来不是词汇量的堆砌，而是核心词汇的灵活运用 —— 哪怕只熟练掌握几百个单词，也能实现顺畅的日常交流。今天，我们就一起来学习尼采的这句话。New Wordsillusion [ɪˈluːʒn] n. 幻想；错觉；假象She was under the illusion that he loved her.她误以为他爱她。destroy [dɪˈstrɔɪ] v. 摧毁；破坏；打破（信念、希望等）The fire destroyed most of the building.大火烧毁了这座建筑的大部分。truth [truːθ] n. 真相；实情；真理He finally told the truth about his past.他终于说出了自己过去的真相。Quote to learn for todaySometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.——Friedrich Nietzsche翻译有时人们不愿听真相，因为他们不想自己的幻象被摧毁。——弗里德里希·尼采更多卡卡老师分享公众号：卡卡课堂 卡卡老师微信：kakayingyu002送你一份卡卡老师学习大礼包，帮助你在英文学习路上少走弯路

Enroll at AHRC: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/2026-classesYouTube Version of the interview: https://youtu.be/Rh9URa_txGUIn this on-the-road episode of Acid Horizon, Craig is joined by Devin Gouré of the Moral Minority podcast for a wide-ranging conversation dismantling common misconceptions about Friedrich Nietzsche, including the will to power, slave morality, the Übermensch, fascism, race, and the myths surrounding his madness. Drawing on Thus Spoke Zarathustra, On the Genealogy of Morals, and Nietzsche's late writings, the discussion reframes him as a thinker of forces, experimentation, and value-creation rather than domination or political dogma. The episode also addresses enduring legends from syphilis to the Turin horse while situating Nietzsche's thought within contemporary political spectacle, nihilism, and cultural struggle. Devin Gouré appears on the Moral Minority podcast, which explores moral philosophy from a radical left perspective: https://pod.link/1728182343Related Course – Acid Horizon Research Commons:For those interested in a deeper engagement with Nietzsche, explore Nietzsche's Experiment with Truth, taught by Keegan Kjeldsen, which approaches Nietzsche's philosophy as an open-ended experimental practice rather than a system of fixed positions.

Slavoj Žižek, Friedrich Nietzsche, Kehinde Andrews – the world has never been short of bad philosophers. But of all the minds who have graced, tortured, or otherwise afflicted human history, which one truly deserves the title: The World's Worst Philosopher? That's not an easy question; after all, philosophy has given us so many options. When Dan Dennett denied consciousness, was that the silliest claim ever made? What should we think when once sensible people – Philip Goff – convert to Christianity? Is Robert Wright, in fact, Robert Wrong? Is it the wartime quartet, or the woke-time bore-tet? Did Bentham really support bestiality? And why did David Papineau say that thing about women? Philosophers are supposed to be seekers of truth: lofty creatures aiming at wisdom, clarity, and the betterment of humanity. But philosophers are just people, shaped by forces that lead them astray. Sometimes they miss truth entirely; sometimes they stumble into it through terrible reasoning; and sometimes they make the world a genuinely worse place. Which brings us to the task at hand: trying to rank the worst philosopher in history. It's no easy feat. In fact, it's going to require the combined efforts of three of philosophy's greatest minds: Jack Symes, Andrew Horton, and (me) Olly Marley. This episode may also mark the end of our professional careers. But if we're going down, we'll go down like Socrates: making an unnecessarily big deal out of something that, absolutely, could have been easily avoided.

In this episode, Megan and Frank investigate the Mandela Effect. Why do so many people "remember" Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 1980s, or the Fruit of the Loom logo as containing a cornucopia, or the existence of a movie starring Sinbad as a genie? What explains these collective mis-rememberings: parallel dimensions, a government cover-up, a glitch in the matrix? Or should we just conclude that human memory is inherently unreliable? How do false memories arise, and how can we distinguish the real from the imagined? Despite our cultural obsession with preserving every memory, could there be some value in forgetting the past? Thinkers discussed include Augustine of Hippo, Friedrich Nietzsche, Edmund Husserl, and Elizabeth Loftus.Hosts' Websites:Megan J Fritts (google.com)Frank J.

Luke shares his insights on existential questions, particularly focusing on how different worldviews interpret pain and suffering. He delves into the perspectives of renowned philosophers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Friedrich Nietzsche, contrasting them with Christian viewpoints, especially those of St. Augustine and the biblical book Ecclesiastes. Through an engaging dialogue, Luke discusses the significance of having a meta-narrative and the implications of living with or without transcendent meaning. This conversation promises to provide profound reflections for anyone grappling with chronic pain, existential questions, or the search for purpose in life.With on YouTube Here00:00 Introduction to Our Special Guest: Luke Thompson00:42 Understanding Fibromyalgia: A Chronic Pain Condition01:26 Exploring Different Spiritual Paradigms01:47 Existence vs. Essence: Sartre and Augustine05:15 The Meaning of Pain and Suffering07:54 The Concept of Metanarrative12:57 Solomon's Wisdom: Everything is Meaningless17:37 Nietzsche's Madman Parable: God is Dead22:59 Short-Term vs. Cosmic Meaning28:47 The Source of Human Value30:17 The Role of Curiosity in Science32:45 Understanding Pain and Suffering35:24 Finding Meaning in Life's Pleasures38:21 The Christian Metanarrative47:08 The Importance of a Metanarrative50:36 The Impact of Losing a Metanarrative55:03 The Deeper Why Questions01:00:13 Final Thoughts and Reflections Click here for the YouTube channel International Conference on ADHD in November 2025 where Dr. Lenz will be one of the speakers.

Popular YouTuber Rudyard Lynch returns to assess his previous predications about civil unrest in the United States and where we stand today. We discuss the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the tie between trans ideology and leftist extremism, and why the housing affordability crisis is feeding radicalization. Lynch also explains the concept of Friedrich Nietzsche's last man and why it has created a generation of young people who are hesitant to push back against a failing society.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Today's sponsors: Visit : https://www.christiancollegeguide.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a Positive Review!Have you lost your faith in the old white man in the sky but don't want to lose God altogether?  We've got you! Join Val and Nathan in this enlightening episode of 'Latter Day Struggles 2.0' as they dive deep into the evolving understanding of God within and beyond the framework of traditional Mormonism and even moving beyond Western Christian theology. The duo discusses contrasting views on the divine, from the punitive, transactional God (whom most of us can relate to learning about) to a more mystical, all-encompassing spirituality aligned with the perennial philosophy. They reinterpret Friedrich Nietzsche's proclamation 'God is dead,' and invite a deepening of the idea of God that aligns with the foundation of all Wisdom Traditions and transpersonal psychology. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that explores how reimagining God as an integral, universal force can transcend old paradigms and awaken a deeper spiritual consciousness.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Welcome01:12 Exploring the Nature of God02:33 Nietzsche's Perspective on God04:40 The Western Concept of God09:44 The Perennial Tradition14:36 Comparing Western and Eastern Views of God23:58 The Perennial Philosophy and Human Divinity46:34 Concluding Thoughts on God and SpiritualitySupport the show Listen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Access $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Gift a Scholarship Download Free Resources Visit our Website

Today we talk about two famous critiques of Stoicism. One by Friedrich Nietzsche who thought the Stoics weren't life affirming enough and so rob themselves of some of the best parts of life. The other by Arthur Schopenhauer who thought the Stoics were too life-affirming of worldly things to ever reach a deep understanding of things.
