“Nietzsche is explicitly relativistic about both moral values and truth, preferring to evaluate claims according to what sort of will to power the claims express rather than according to their objective truth-value.”

Nietzsche didn’t believe in “truth”, just on interpretations which are dependent on a perceiver. He saw that society’s conventional “truths” were imposed firmly by those in power, and when those in power fell, other truths were implemented.

The ancient greek saw nature as a projection or representation of the gods and when the civilization fell, their “truths” fell as well, followed by other new “truths” implemented by new masters. In the western modern era, nature is seen from the science point of view, because the preceding point of view, that of Christianity, was brought to an end. In the christian era those in power were ruined by the fall of the monarchies because of the rising power of science, and therefore gave rise for new masters and modern types of government.

Conclusion: The taking of power from previous masters leaves the emerging masters able to plunge their “truths” on society.

An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made, in a narrow field.

On Love

Today is the day of love, the day in honor of the secretion of neurotransmitters (serotonin, oxytocin and dopamine) and stress hormones. But of course the experience of love is whats being appreciated, the subjective qualities, not the material basis. 

Love like many things is like a drug, it brings happiness, thrill and a sense of ease. It is often fantasized about, and this is what causes humans (especially females) to be always searching for it. It is not very different from how prescribed or illegal drugs work, and yes it has some type of psychological addiction (this explains why my ex-girlfriend always got a new boyfriend every 4 months when she lost or left one)

If you want to enlighten yourself about why are people religious and others non-religious read this cognitive science paper. It’s simply incredible.

Technology is proof that science is truth.

Behavioral addiction, which is sometimes referred to as impulse control disorders, are increasingly recognized as treatable forms of addictions.^[13] The type of behaviors which some people have identified as being addictive include gambling, food, sex, viewing of pornography, use of computers, playing video games, use of the internet, work, exercise, spiritual obsession (as opposed to religious devotion), cutting, and shopping.

When analyzing the addiction to food for example, a published study in 2009 from The Scripps Research Institute have shown for the first time that the same molecular mechanisms that drive people into drug addiction are behind the compulsion to overeat, pushing people into obesity. In this study, scientists focused on a particular receptor in the brain known to play an important role in vulnerability to drug addiction—the dopamine D2 receptor. The D2 receptor responds to dopamine, a neurotransmitter that is released in the brain by pleasurable experiences like food or sex or drugs like cocaine.^[14]
