Essay / Research Paper Abstract
6 pages in length. Nietzsche labored in his literary world of "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" to portray the purpose of humanity, which he maintained was for no other reason than as a bridge between beasts and the overman. According to his oft-debated theory, mankind is so full of his own self that he cannot see past his mortal flaws; as a direct result, he remains perpetually closer to the animal kingdom than the spiritual world due to his brutal and untamed approach to life. As such, these chief problems, conflicts and threats stand in the way of the "last man's" ability to create beyond himself, thereby imperiling the last man's understanding of the soul and the will.

last mans spiritual incapacity as addressed in the prologue stems from humanitys prejudices, superficiality and unyielding dependency upon faith, a deadly combination that precludes any potential bearing of ethereal awareness.
"All beings so far have created something beyond themselves. Do you want to be the ebb of that great tide, and revert back to the beast rather than
surpass mankind? What is the ape to a man? A laughing-stock, a thing of shame. And just so shall a man be to the Superman: a laughing-stock,
a thing of shame. You have evolved from worm to man, but much within you is still worm. Once you were apes, yet even now man is more
of an ape than any of the apes" (Thus Spoke Zarathustra). To be unique within a world of sameness is a quest
