oh….
inherent. that's a twist in the plot. nothing has
inherent value or meaning, sure. but to
give nothing either value or meaning is another story. to me, the latter one is the real "nihilism." the former-- that's just obvious, no? i mean, after establishing there is no god or absolute, concluding that nothing has
inherent value or meaning is just kindergarten philosophy. the real question is what to do after that.
