Default Re: Existentialism, from the quiz

The problem with Sarte is that he gives equal credence to the choices that people make, even though some choices are superior to others due to rationality. He concludes that all choices define mankind so there is not really a right or a wrong.

His is an ultimate laissez faire society that does not value the end results of one's actions. Both the Communists and Christians see choices as means to an end, which makes sense if we are to look at the world objectively. Sarte does not do this. His means are the end.

And if I were an atheist, I would definitely be a Nietszchian. It is the only atheistic philosophy that makes sense.

For once I actually agree with you. Did someone hijack Peter's account?
