Abstract
This writing explores the life and thoughts of Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher known for his critique of Christian morality and traditional concepts in society. Nietzsche, who was born into a devout Christian family, developed views that opposed Christian morality, which he believed created a slave mentality. He advocated for a morality focused on self-preservation and the elevation of individual dignity, proposing the concept of the superior human or ubermensch that emphasizes strength, courage, and freedom. Nietzsche's thoughts led to egoism and a rejection of absolute authority, emphasizing the importance of individuals to develop themselves to the fullest. This writing also discusses how Nietzsche's thoughts remain relevant in contemporary contexts, urging individuals to prioritize themselves and achieve their best potential. Additionally, the author highlights how Nietzsche, as a productive thinker, has influenced many existentialist philosophers and the development of modern Western philosophy with his nihilistic views. While his contributions are acknowledged as significant, this writing also underscores that his views pose new dangers to current philosophical thinking.
