Once you reach heaven or hell, can you be anything but a nihilist from that point on?

I was being purposively provocative and hoped to offend some /lit/friends. I think nihilism is useful as a word but doesn't make sense due to what cognitive research suggests.

The Nietzschean was a nihilist

Is there something I should absolutely read before getting into Thus Spoke Zarahustra?

[Anonymous No.10248297]

>>10248277
Yeah I avoided that question (answer) because it comes from several and I would have to make a few references. Might do it later.
I might have a plato.edu article that talks about this and might post that one first.

[Anonymous No.10248311]

maybe you could give a brief summary that explains it? Sounds like you're talking out of your ass.

>there may even be puritanical fanatics of conscience, who prefer to put their last trust in a sure nothing, rather than in an uncertain something. But that is Nihilism, and the sign of a despairing, mortally wearied soul, notwithstanding the courageous bearing such a virtue may display.

WHY?! WHY MUST YOU TORMENT ME SO WITH THESE NIETZSCHE THREADS? All I want to do is come here for an Analytic experience that will exercise my brain but I am constantly numbed by these odious threads with their basic understanding of philosophy and try-hard self-help miasma. Can I never complete a system of proofs, will I ever know the touch of a woman and enter between her loins? Will my seed ever drip from Quine?

[Anonymous No.10248391]

>>10248375
Everyone dies anon, have some patience. The philosophy article does mention cognitive science, or rather psychology. I use those interchangeably, perhaps that's confusing.

[Anonymous No.10248393]

Correct.

[Anonymous No.10248425]

>>10248294
If you want the full experience of Nietzsche, you need to read him in chronological writing order, no exceptions. If you jump straight to Zarathustra, at least don't skip the translator's introduction, or any footnotes. Expect to read a work that is pure allegory and which will require a good eye to interpret allegory and several readings.
