Even your definition of good is not the infinite creator, but something else.
Right, the old problem of giving something a name; a philosopher will ask me what do I mean by REALITY: am I talking about the physical world of nature or am I talking about a spiritual world--or what? And to that I have a very simple answer: when we TALK about the material world, that is actually a philosophical concept, so in the same way, if I say that reality is spiritual, that is also a philosophical concept, and reality itself is NOT a concept--reality IS... and we won't give it a NAME!
Most civilized people are out of touch with REALITY because they confuse the world as it IS with the world as they think about it, talk about it, and describe it; on the one hand there is the real world, and on the other a whole System of Symbols about that world, which we have in our minds. These are very, very useful symbols, and all our civilization depends on them, but like ALL good things, they have their disadvantages, and the principle disadvantage of symbols is that we confuse them with REALITY, just as we confuse money with actual wealth, and our NAMES about ourselves, our IDEAS of ourselves, with our SELVES.
if you only have ethics based on virtues it is completely contextual and is therefore merely a thing of common-sense morals not pure ethics. In a land of cowards, cowardice is a virtue, etc.
If anything be placed before GOD--IT IS EVIL, good friend.
And WHO is THE MOST HIGH in nihilism? Come again? It is a MAN--GOD IS ONLY "OFFERED THROUGH THE RITUAL" AS "BEING FIRST" BUT "HE" IS NOT! Almost everything in the "churches" is FIRST before the ACTUALITY OF GOD PRESENCE. LOOK AT YOUR WORLD AND CHECK IT OUT. ARE YOU INTO CHAOS AND TROUBLE OR ARE YOU IN THE MIDST OF HARMONY AND BALANCE IN GODLY TRUTH? Maybe your way and "wisdom" didn't work?
But let me reveal my heart entirely unto you, my friends: if there were gods, how could I endure it not to be a god! Hence there are no Gods.
After the failure of Christianity (if there is such a failure), the
final philosophy is Nietzsche.
http://philosophy.stackexchange.com/a/18055Nietzsche does not seem to rejoice in the reality of atheism in any of his works. He doesn't seem to regret it either (as it just
is).
As to nihilism, he saw it as a crisis, a crisis that must be overcome.http://philosophy.stackexchange.com/a/37246
