Hello Everybody!

My name is Martin, I am 56, German, and I am living in Hamburg. My English isn't perfect of course, as I only had it in school and improved it a bit.

What's my relationship to philosophy? I think I am very sceptical regarding the philosophical project. The philosophy who is wished from the society is a philosophy good for the society, a smooth philosophy, a comfortable philosophy . The somehow wild philosopher isn't wanted. And my personal view is: Yes, philosophy is a dangerous thing but a philosophy who isn't dangerous isn't interesting at all.

The point is that there is no real choice between morality and immorality. For there is no reason why you can't act very moralistic although you don't believe in good and evil. Or, as Friedrich Nietzsche said "To overcome good and evil, doesn't mean, to overcome good and bad." Good and evil may not exist, but good and bad still exists, also for Friedrich Nietzsche. So to distinguish morality and immorality in this way is to distinguish things, who may be contrary, but are not contrary in a way, that if one sentence is right the other must be wrong. It's completely possible not to believe in good and evil, but lead a very moral life.
