Socrates was ugly and tired of life, so he made a tyrant of reason. Philosophers are mummies who hate the body and the senses. Reason is a tricky old woman. Morality is a misunderstanding. Kant is a sneaky Christian. And don\'t even get Nietzsche started on "free will" or the "self" - just excuse for priests to punish people, a hangman\'s metaphysics. David and Tamler dive into Friedrich Nietzsche\'s Twilight of the Idols, a fascinating set of aphorisms brimming with passion, provocation, questions without answers.
