15 RELIGION CALLED CAR OWNERSHIP

According to Marx-san or Marxism, religion reduces people's immediate suffering and provide them with pleasant illusions which give them the strength to carry on. In that regard, iPhone or car is considered to be a necessity for people simply to "carry on." However, as Marx-san implied in his famous "Religion is opium," to resolve their suffering with iPhone or car keeps on creating a need for a more expensive iPhone or car. And, in proportion, I think that the amount of "immediate suffering" keeps on getting bigger.

Hello. My name is Tatsuzo Taguchi. I studied Philosophy at university (at University of Victoria in Canada), and I have been studying Philosophy ever since. I am particularly fond of Nietzsche-san, and I have translated Takeda Seiji Sensei's Introduction to Nietzsche (sold at Amazon Kindle). They haven't sold too many copies, but I translated this book because I wanted to leave something about Philosophy for my son. I translated the book because I couldn't find books in English more suited for that purpose. In other words, I consider this book by Takeda Sensei to be one of the best books in English on the subject of Nietzsche-san and Philosophy. So I hope you will get a chance to read it one day soon.
Philosophy may sound like a rather bothersome subject. You may have perhaps heard of Descartes-san's "I think therefore I am" or Kant-san's "Thing-In-Itself," but you probably have little idea as to what they are about. Even if you looked them up, you may be puzzled as to why they would think about such things. So Philosophy may in fact be bothersome. But conversely, that is because our life or reality is bothersome. In that sense, the purpose of Philosophy may be regarded as to clarify and tidy up our bothersome life or reality.
If we left bothersome things as they are, just like how cluttered towns and homes become difficult to live in, our life and reality also gets more and more complicated. I hope my discourse on Philosophy can help you declutter some of the bothersome aspects of life or reality.
