What are we supposed to do? What’s the goal? What’s the meaning of all this? Without Christianity to guide us, the West now faces a void - a nothingness. If there’s no God to guide us, no Afterlife to suffer for, and no divine purpose, then what’s the point of living?Even though Nietzsche was highly critical of Christianity (seeing it as a “lifedenying” force), he acknowledged the danger of its decline: nihilism. Nihilism is the belief that nothing matters: the belief in nothing. This video explores nihilism and possible solutions by Friedrich Nietzsche and Albert Camus.Video: Nihilism: Embracing the Void of ExistenceSupport the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?
