A distorted interpretation of the Concept of the Ubermensch

Controversial pseudo-priest HPOS (I don't want to write his link here. It just makes people curious about him--a dangerous proposition) claims to be an ubermensch. This concept started with German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Nietzsche brewed that concept during heights of his insanity. However, there's some grain of truth in the concept, rooted in Darwin's determinism.

Yes, a class of ubermensch is expected as humankind progresses. Evolutionary theories confirm that. However, Nietzsche presupposes the growth of a new set of men, stronger not because of the power they wield but the potentialities they hold.

Let me elucidate. As society progresses due to advantages in technology, human beings will also grow and transform to better adapt to these environmental changes. Such adaptation may be in the form of physiological transformations, small alterations in physical human forms. However, the most apparent change would be in the growth in human intelligence. As society advances, the rate or level of technological advances also increases. To adapt to such changes, humans try and expand their knowledge through scientific inquiries. These scientific inquiries lead to more newer advantages and more scientific discoveries. These discoveries are then assimilated into the system and the system adjusts to it and more inquiries would then happen, so on and so forth, ad infinitum.

Eventually, ubermenschs are created. These men are not tyrants. They are simply a set of New Men, known for their superior intelligence than others who prove to be slow in adaptation. They are as what smoke described in her post today. 

Equating the concept of ubermenschs with that of the ascendancy of a superior race is fallacious. That's the misinterpretation caused by too much reading of Nietzsche by Hitler and Goebbels, leading to the mistaken assumption that an Aryan race is far superior than other races. In fact, if you read Nietzsche closely enough, you'll find that the philosopher suggested nothing of this sort. What he describes is the expected evolution of humankind, from its present state to an ubermensch state, which, in closer study, is still not yet here. 

To claim that one is an ubermensch and ascribing it to the concept of domination is just brag.
