The philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche changed the world. His approach to individual responsibility and the progress of humanity was stark and uncomforting at times. His idea of a "Perfected Man" the Übermensch, can almost be seen as blasphemous within religious circles, similarly--making oneself better through experience and perspective is exactly what Freemasonry calls us to do and is in simpatico with religious viewpoints. In this lecture--we'll explore these concepts and their interrelations.
