Indifference

Elze25-08-14
Indifference is blowing neither hot nor cold on something. There is no right or wrong, just as truth or lie. Indifferent people put everything under the same umbrella. They are nothingists, also called nihilists. Nothing matters. Except for themselves.
Indifference is different from fatalism and apathy. The latter two don't feel able to cope with the circumstances and then say: 'what difference does it make, whether I am bitten by the cat or the dog? Or taken by God or the devil, it still remains violent and dictatorial.
