Abstract

Western nihilism could be considered as the result of secularization, and secularization as the horizon of Western philosophy. The dynamics of contemporary society coincides with the process of self-affirmation of man, and this idea moves together with the progressive abandonment of the reference to the transcendence. The main reason for this process of secularization is the disappointment of a missed salvation. So, time has changed its direction, and today we can see the triumph of a new carpe diem. But the destination of man is being able to live in a changing, uncertain, unknown time, knowing in advance that this uncertainty could be his real fate.
