Extend to which Nietzsche can be perceived to open further our close belief trap than Descartes or Plato. Introduction Nietzsche agrees that reason is not powerless and they are important to be used in the demonstration of our beliefs. It is true that there are more uncertain believes that are found to be more reasonable than others. Reason should be behind any argument given by man. There is the need for people to take into consideration of thinking of morals and science that come with reasonable beliefs in terms of changing and uncertain evidence (Greg 2009). The belief of people should not be based on things simply because they have heard of them. It is wrong to believe on things because they have just been spoken and rumoured ...

... because they have been handed over by from many generations. It unethical to impose one to believe on what is wrong based on their view. The belief of justice should be based on the right action in which, the action brings about the greatest amount of pleasure or the least amount of pain which is referred to as naive utilitarianism. The people in authority should work towards achieving the common good or towards public interest. In his demonstration Nietzsche describes a philosophy which is controlled by the Nazi anti-Semitic doctrine where people are interested in searching for a superior man. However, it is not justified that God exists as described by Nietzsche.

Benjamin I.Admirable he may be in his philosophy, Nietzsche ended poor and wretched...it is a pathetic to see a great philosopher being eaten by his own philosophy.
