Nietzche, even though he lived a short time, he was a genius philosopher. Why did I decided to talk about him?. Well, let us say that I have a presentation about his theories in my philosophy class today. Anyhow, this German philosopher was mainly debased in his time. Despite the fact that he introduced concepts such as ¨The over-man¨ and ¨The death of God¨, his thoughts were considered as immoral. Orthodox religious beliefs from people at that time (XIX century), prevented them from understanding the essence of Nietzche´s theories. In his young adult years, Nietzche transferred to the university of Leipzig to major in philosophy; after taking a year of a theology program at university of Bonn. Nietzche grew up in a Christian family, and had a religious education. However, he realized that the nature of man, was beyond than what religions could tell you about him. For instance, in his theory of ¨The death of God¨, Nietzche believed the existence of God was not exactly connected with practice of moral values. Besides, he mentioned that each man was a god unto himself in his theory ¨The over-man¨. Nonetheless, this can only be seen after man has reached that state. According to Nietzche, a man who wants to become an over-man, needs reach the limits of his own self. The over-man is confident and proactive, and is able to master any discipline. All of these skills of course have the limitations of humanity. Many may have thought that Nietzsche was one more of those preachers who used recherché words and meaningless theories. Notwithstanding, he was the opposite of that.    

People are usually befogged by some of the stupidities their religions tell them. Ergo, they do not use common sense.  Inquisitive individuals such as Nietzsche, are often criticized, for trying to find out more about things than people usually know. Besides being a breakthrough thinker, Nietzsche had to deal with the vicissitudes of life from an early age. Not because of the fact that he was poor, but because he suffered from conditions such a severe myopia since he was a little boy. Apart from that, he contracted syphilis in his youth years because of not being prudent. Not to mention that he got hurt while serving the army in the Prussian war. Anyhow, we may be arrided by the orthodox religious thoughts of the people of the XIX century. Be that as it may, still today, some have strong unreasonable beliefs. In fact, Nietzsche made sure that dichotomy of the definitions of ¨good¨ and ¨bad¨¨ was well explained in his theories. He even  stated that religious fanaticism  was part of his idea of what is bad. Anyway, if I told you to consider Nietzsche´s philosophy, I would not want to be a Dionysian idiot. Rather, I´d like you to be a free thinker and a circumspect explorer. Finally I would say the following: One of the beatitudes of Jesus was this: ¨Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness´ sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven¨. What if there was no heaven though?.
