What's the value in values?

Whatever society constructs is probably for the benefit of those creating or constructing it, is that so? This work is an enduring reflection on the nature and prominence of values as embedded in different moral norms and customs and how they hinder or further our ultimate goal for existence. Our quest for knowledge and truth in this regard is part of existence and it receives value from being integrated into the task for which it is part. In a nutshell, any knowledge which destroys life destroys itself for knowledge presupposes life.

Accordingly, the Friedrich Nietzsche's übermensch (over man) enhances our lives by seeking and advocating for a revaluation of all values that hinder our existence. The übermensch stands at the apex of the world’s pyramid calling to nature how he is at the goal; how he is the goal; and how he is the completion of nature. Religious or traditional mores have weighed us down heavily and the price we pay is too harsh a burden to bear: complying and being at ease with moral decadence than standing up to it. The elite trample on the majority and dictate every aspect of their lives “…while we stand aside and look”, the legendary Bob Marley sang.

The übermensch stands to revolutionize and awaken our consciences to the need to positively affirm ourselves such that we confront everything that threatens our livelihood. We can develop and become more perfect beings that can explore their full potentialities without fear of supernatural intervention, punishment or scorn. Therefore, it is only through the act of rebellion in morality that we can introduce in our history a human subject free to act and determine his own destiny.
