Nihilism what is It?

Nihilism

So what is Nihilism?

Nihilism in its most basic sense is a belief in nothing. According to The Webster’s dictionary, its tenants are the denial of the existence of any basis for knowledge or truth.

It rejects the customary beliefs in religion and morality. In politics the doctrine says that all social, political, and economic structures must be completely destroyed in order to make way for institutions which advocate revolutionary reform.

What this means to you, is that Nihilist are people who are functioning without any real belief system.

If you look at what’s happening today, you’ll realize that’s exactly whats going on in our country today.

True nihilism leads to mental disorders. The reason for this is, the person that is a nihilist his or her mind runs to and fro looking for meaning.

That’s a problem because our minds are designed to seek for meaning in things. This is why we have teachings.  It’s just the way we are made. The Philosophers gave much thought to this long ago.

The Philosophers

To deny this is to deny oneself. Many of the questions that trouble people were actually asked long ago by the philosophers.

Plato, Aristotle, Socrates et.al. Even these philosophers understood the importance of meaning and moral values. A philosopher by the name of Meno, who was a follower of Socrates, once asked Socrates whether he thought that Virtue could be taught. They pondered the meaning of life and values as far back as 470 B.C. over two thousand years ago.

Those who are promoters of nihilism don’t know that people need meaning in their lives. It is this writer’s belief if you disconnect a person from their beliefs and their meaning in life, you will wind up with chaos.

The psychologist Rollo May wrote extensively on the human search for the meaning of life.

This is a huge’ If you have no real beliefs then in your search for meaning others will insert a belief system they want you to have into you.

The Social Engineers

Social Engineers are those that want create a different form of societal structure. Since they have managed to swipe your mind from a belief system, now they can sub-plant a belief system into you.

This is what they have done. The Nihilist will promote that there is no right or wrong.  

Are we Gods?

Isn’t this what they are promoting? That you are your own god or that there is no God and you make all of your own decisions, and that the only rules are those rules that you apply to yourself. They don’t have a concept of morality. What is not said is that without morality you don’t have Character.

So what’s the danger with this Nihilism concept? The problem is that if there are no absolutes. They may teach you that your rights don’t exist either. That way your leaders can say that they give them to you, your rights that is, rather than that your rights coming from a higher power, namely from God.

You be the judge’
