The Children of Pain and Suffering

Why philosophies like Nihilism exist

Philosophical beliefs like nihilism and absurdism are not organic human constructions. They are byproducts of an extremely inhumane society and civilization which drives the human being to construct philosophies that keep them sane in insane worlds, however insane the ideologies themselves have to be, to do so.

A child born in a stable and secure nation with a lean and responsible government apparatus, healthy food, good parents and ample opportunities in education and occupation will never even ponder the surface of these ‘survivalist’ ideologies. Their beliefs about the world will reflect their experiences with it. Morally degrading beliefs and behaviors are birthed only from places where there is moral degradation in the first place.

Conversely, morally sound beliefs and behaviors (what we might generally call “Healthy”) are the direct products of an already-healthy society. One fuels the existence of the other and vice versa. In a healthy society, unhealthy ideologies have no purpose or function. It would never even occur to a citizen in this type of society to see the world in a nihilistic way, unless that world existed in his or her present conditions or in the conditions of others around them.

Such dark thoughts and ideologies are a direct result of a dark construction. They are the result of the enormous open-air global prison that many, if not all of us, find ourselves in today. They are the result of witnessing human atrocity, like genocides proudly displayed in international media. They are the result of corruption, hunger, slave labor, moral depravity in media, the hollow and brutalist natures of modern art and architecture respectively, the school systems that are constructed like militaries and prisons, and so forth.

Without a persistent and unyielding Namaste: A steadfast relationship with God and Great Spirit, and the Christ principles thereof, we will have no choice but to reconstruct our perceptions of reality with more adaptable philosophical treatises. Neo-Stoicism, Nihilism, Absurdism, Social Darwinism, Zero-Sum-Game Machiavellianism and all others of similar form, are philosophies of mental and physical survival created and believed in, by people who are at the bottom of Maslow's Pyramid.

They must choose one or the other of these modalities.

Feed the Good wolf or the Bad wolf.

Give Abel’s offering, or Cain’s sacrifice.

Sell their soul to the devil, or dedicate it to God.

Whatever choice they make, they must choose, lest they be annihilated; mind, body, heart, and even soul.
