No Donny, they're nihilists; they're harmless
I'm working through Nietzsche's "Beyond Good and Evil", and I came across this blurb that reminded me of Walter.
"..there may even be puritanical fanatics of conscience, who prefer to put their last trust in a sure nothing, rather than in an uncertain something. But that is Nihilism, and the sign of a despairing, mortally wearied soul, notwithstanding the courageous bearing such a virtue may display." -Nietzsche
