"The preacher of chastity is a public incitement to anti-nature. Contempt for sexuality, making it unclean with the concept of 'uncleanliness', these are the real sins against the holy spirit of life." - Nietzsche, The Anti-Christ
Celibacy is the most perverted fetish possible. All other fetishes at least resemble the natural sex drive, but celibates spurn our god-given libido for philosophical gratification. It's as great a sin as selling your parents out to the Cheka to prove your loyalty to communism.
"Yes, man is a sun, all-seeing and all-illuminating, when he loves; loving not, he is a dark house in which a smoking lamp burns."
---Friedrich Hölderlin, Hyperion, 1797.
peterson's always confused me: he's said before that his two influences are nietzsche and jung. hes an authentic jungian through and through, but i'll never understood why he likes nietzsche, a thinker that declared war against everything that peterson himself considers sacred
just finished watching jordan peterson's new series on nietzsche and its baffling to me: i genuinely have no reason to think hes ever read N; i truly believe that if i was given just a week of prep time to put together a lecture on N, it would be a thousand times better LMAO
