How Nietzsche's foundation was deficient


I think that Nietzsche's will to accumulate force (the will to power), which he placed first in the phenomenon of life, in reality comes third behind survival and reproductive success, and the material activating Spirit-Will-To-Godhood within life comes first. This is where Nietzsche's philosophy is deficient at its activating foundation.

This does not take away form Nietzsche's great courage in philosophy and psychology and the brilliant patterns he saw in life and culture. But Nietzsche and his postmodern disciples were off in their philosophical foundation leading to the amorality and nihilism we see today.

The sacred aim of life is not merely self-preservation or the accumulation of strength but is the material and supermaterial evolution toward Godhood. “Decadence” is the opposite of evolution. Even “happiness” is basically related to always striving to evolve toward Godhood.

Religion, philosophy, science and art continue in this way, with the Inward Path to the symbolic Father Within retained but transformed in the Outward Path of material evolution to real Godhood---Godhood and morality are not dead.
