Just because has them on his shelf doesn't mean he bought them.

If you're born into the bottom of society (or the near bottom), and your future is always being someone's low-tier lackey, or working soul crushing minimum wage jobs with retards, or settling for partners that are well below what you'd like, why should you not just take what you want from society? Why should you just submissively eat the dog shit fed to you by other people? Why not just set your morals aside and be bad?

It's not stealing when it's your property, mypropertyanon. Which would make your property my property!

It is easily understood that the conflict over what is revered as the highest essence can be significant only so long as even the most embittered opponents concede to each other the main point — that there is a highest essence to which worship or service is due. If one should smile compassionately at the whole struggle over a highest essence, as a Christian might at the war of words between a Shiite and a Sunnite or between a Brahman and a Buddhist, then the hypothesis of a highest essence would be null in his eyes, and the conflict on this basis an idle play. Whether then the one God or the three in one. whether the Lutheran God or the Être suprême or not God at all, but “Man,” may represent the highest essence, that makes no difference at all for him who denies the highest essence itself, for in his eyes those servants of a highest essence are one and all-pious people, the most raging atheist not less than the most faith-filled Christian.

In the foremost place of the sacred,[heilig] then, stands the highest essence and the faith in this essence, our “holy [heilig] faith.”

The spook

With ghosts we arrive in the spirit-realm, in the realm of essences.

What haunts the universe, and has its occult, “incomprehensible” being there, is precisely the mysterious spook that we call highest essence. And to get to the bottom of this spook, to comprehend it, to discover reality in it (to prove “the existence of God”) — this task men set to themselves for thousands of years; with the horrible impossibility, the endless Danaid-labor, of transforming the spook into a non-spook, the unreal into something real, the spirit into an entire and corporeal person — with this they tormented themselves to death. Behind the existing world they sought the “thing in itself,” the essence; behind the thing they sought the un-thing.

Why do we constantly have a recent purchases thread up then?

Why do you still read dated books? They don't even have cultural capital value anymore.

Which is better Oxford World's Classics or Penguin Classics? Why?

Because property rights are a spook.

Read his book.

Wouldn't shitposting be a behaviour in everyday life?
