Redpill me on philosophy books that are not based on christianity
why is every copy of the ego and his own over $15 on used booksites?

>>8226921
I'm from another religion so i always believe that anything that is based on christianity is another form of gospel.

Nice resolution fampai, did you take that yourself?
I can't say I care much for the ocean/land and the orange/blue gradient borders on stock, but the dark/light/dark contrast progression of the layers of clouds is quite excellent
>>8226885
The more and more people talk about stirner the more I want to read the ego and it's own, it sounds like a fucking fantastic book.

don't ever mention "aesthetic" again you plebeian dilettante

Your sense of the aesthetics is not your own, and has been imprinted upon you for political purposes
Behold your chains, or you will be held by them

can't tell if youre serious. your quality of photo just keeps declining
Is this what /lit/ is like

Are you autistic or do you just like to pretend that you are?
>>8226943
Don't get too hyped, it takes a while to get good, but the final chapters are amazing.
I feel like stirnerposting is one of the reasons why the quality of intellectual discussion on /lit/ has reached an all time low
>>8226885
>When you realize all displays of anything are an act of egoism
>>8228735
Just because a purely egoistic standpoint ends a lot of discussions doesn't mean it's bad.
>>8228942
That's exactly why it's bad, and why climate change will literally wreck our civilization, too many egotistical morons.
>>8228735
Posting quality is a spook.
>>8228735
Everything Strinerposters know about Stirner's philosophy is what they have learned from other Strinerposters. It's pure memetic force. The only way to escape is to actually read Stirner.

You sound like a jackass, but in answer to your question:
Guide to the Pre-Socratics -> The Apology of Socrates & The Republic, by Plato -> The Nichomachean Ethics, On Politics, and On Rhetoric, by Aristotle -> The Epicurea -> On the Republic, by Cicero -> Letters from a Stoic, by Seneca the Younger -> Meditations, by Marcus Aurelius -> The Essential Plotinus
After that, Augustine came along, and fused the philosophies of Plotinus with the existing line taken by the earliest Church Fathers, creating "modern" Christianity. All Western Philosophy was more-or-less theology from that point until Descartes came along, and inadvertently paved the way for the re-secularisation of such, though he himself was a devout Christian.
Hume was pretty fucking secular.
The Young Hegelian was literally defined by the fact that they hated Christianity, as opposed to the staunchly religious "Old Hegellians".
The most prominent members of the Old Hegellian movement would probably be Stirner, and Marx. Stirner was a fucking idiot, but Marx is actually worth reading, even if you don't agree with him.
If you want someone vaguely similar to Stirner but with a few more brain cells, then Nietzsche is the obvious candidate.
Once you've read them, some other obvious philosophers to read would be:
Heidegger - Being, and Time
Sartre - Being, and Nothingness
De Beauvoir - The Second Sex (among others)
Bertrand Russell - Too many fucking books to note here.
Ludwig Wittgenstein - Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, and Philosophical Investigations
>>8226885
Agreed. /pol/ is even worse, which is funny because they think they're 'red-pilled'.
>>8228735
honestly i just hide every stirner thread.
about to do this one now
>>8226885
>said the egoist
>>8229249
This is not a bad path, I second this path if you are interested in that specific set of philosophers.
Glad not everyone is Stirnertard.
>>8226885
stirner is a spook
>>8229845
Spooks is a spook in itself.
