Excerpt from: Life on the Mississippi
Mark Twain
THERE was no use in arguing with a person like this. I promptly put such a strain on my memory that by and by even the shoal water and the countless crossing-marks began to stay with me. But the result was just the same. I never could more than get one knotty thing learned before another presented itself. Now I had often seen pilots gazing at the water and pretending to read it as if it were a book; but it was a book that told me nothing.

Nietzsche’s philosophical thoughts on morality argue that a moral code is not in our nature, while
Zimbardo’s argument is that we shouldn’t expect our decisions to be
influenced by morality alone. Nietzsche’s thoughts on morality are
grounded in opposition to Christianity. He begins his argument by
quoting from the Bible, “If thy eye offend thee, pluck it out,” before
labeling the Christian idea as “stupidity” (Paragraph 1). Nietzsche argues
that sensuality is in opposition to Christianity and that the church
“always wanted the destruction of its enemies; we, we immoralists and
Antichristians” (Paragraph 5), adding that “Life has come to an end
where the ‘kingdom of God’ begins” (Paragraph 8). In contrast, Zimbardo
bases his argument on science and proposes that the electric shock
experiment by psychologist Stanley Milgram “provides several lessons
about how situations can foster evil” (Paragraph 5). He also uses
conclusions from a 1974 experiment by Harvard anthropologist John
Watson, as well as his own simulated jail experiment, the 1971 Stanford
Prison Experiment, to help support his argument.
