Nothingness and the human Towards an anthropological conception focused on vacuity

Abstract

In the following pages, the reader will find a proposal of anthropological conception derived from philosophically assuming nothingness. The intention of this article is to express twenty concrete consequences derived from being a committed nihilist in the contemporary world. Among other things, the anthropological conception proposed along these lines is congruent with the fact that human is because of his own nothingness and can only believe that he knows, that he is hurled into the world, that his will is imaginary, and that he is un-created, finite, contingent, timely, and light, without certainties and without sense. The article likewise explains the human need of creating gods and what man lives after knowing himself to be mobile in a world that is inserted simultaneously into chaos and the cosmos.
