And yes, I realize the eternal return story is some ubermensch mental test presented by Nietzche, but there's still the concern over the possibility of such a fate.

>Help me out, what is the biggest contradiction, scientifically

It's not an observable/empirical hypothesis, in fact it is totally impossible to support scientifically, so the scientific objection is that it's groundless, can't be falsified, can't be demonstrated even in principle.

>a demon tells you….

>contradiciton and… philosophically, to the theory of Eternal Reoccurrence?

#1 Don't trust what a demon says.

#2 The worldview it requires is nonsensical, it's just materialism/nihilism on infinite repeat. Who created this predetermined world of infinite return where nothing changes from cycle to cycle? It just appeared by itself and repeats for no rhyme or reason? No reason to believe this.

> I realize the eternal return story is some ubermensch mental test presented by Nietzche,

Even as a mental test its kind of goofy, when taken seriously one realizes that nothing he does is his own will, but instead predetermined by some vague external mediator….bleh

might find this interesting, is a good lecture.

for the actual idea it wouldn't be noticed even it's just dumb

it's like saying hey what if there is a parallel universe that is exactly the same you have no way interacting with

I haven't read nietzche but I can't imagine it's more then a dumb thought excersize as an actual "theological" idea it's totally valueless

a gif doesn't change if you loop it a bunch of times it's still the same gif

The amusing thing is that people that I meet who obsess over Nietzsche, and Nietzsche himself, are the furthest characters away from the ubermensch possible.

I sort of read it as a mental test of "if you don't find yourself comfortable with the idea, you're not an ubermensch."

I had to ask to make sure though.
