Is it something to do with Freidrich Nietzshe's philosophy of the future? I am not very familiar with it but seem to recall something about it. Something to do with not believing everything and thinking for yourself.

can u explain what is good and evil?
i think actually there aren't good and evil.they are only judged by human feeling.they are objective and inveracious.

The will to power. According to Nietzche, pre-morality is motivated by guilt or an actions consequences. But the place we must strive for (extra-moral) is motivated by the most honest of all motivations, the will to power or dominance. Neither good or bad, it is fact, and is accomplished by examining your intentions used to determine your act. For example, you might give to charities, but while a moral person might say they gave because the other needed it, a truly honest (extra-moral) person would conclude the reason for giving was to appear superior to another, if only to himself.

Ok, very impressive but I have a slightly different reading of Nietzsche. By my reading it is not the will to power to which I refer but something else. Though I recognise that your interpretation is certainly more generally accepted than mine.

Ok, I'll have a think about that. Not sure how to express it succinctly here.

I'm interested to hear what your interpretation is? Nietzche had so many ideas out of the norm, it's easy to come away with several different meanings and interpretations that could all be on point.
