Discussion Questions
1. Some people view Nietzsche’s writings as harmful and even dangerous. For example, some have charged Nietzsche with inspiring Nazism. Are these charges justified or not? Why or why not?
In my opinion, I don't find any harm in what he said and it depends on each person on how he or she takes it.
2. What does it mean to be “a creator of values”?
What is injurious to me is injurious in itself; he knows that it is he himself only who confers honor on things; he is a creator of values.
