Hannah Dehler __**//Nihilism//**__ In life there are different belief or moral principles. A belief or moral principle is something that a person lives by through their life. People could live their life believing there is a god, but not all people have the same belief or moral principles. A person may for instance feel that there is no such thing as a god or even have a moral principle at all. The people that “reject all religious and moral principles, often believe that life is meaningless” (Apple Dictionary). These people are considered to have a nihilistic view on life. Nihilism is a way for a person to go through life even when they feel that life is “meaningless”. Nihilistic people view life as “meaningless” therefore when they look up in a dictionary they see words without definitions because life has no meaning. This meaningless view of life is just another belief principle that says there is nothing to believe in, just that isolation will be present throughout life till death due us part.
