Theses on Feuerbach

It is clear that Marx’s Theses on Feuerbach is a very significant document. In this critique Marx displays his theory of human nature. He believes that we are partially in control of our human nature. Marx believed that our human nature is formulated by material conditions and that it will condition according to the way that we express our lives. Marx believed the humans were naturally good and that it allows our human nature to flourish. This is a significant document because Marx challenged the way of thinking during his time period, and he challenged philosophers to think differently to try to change the world. By going against theorists such as Kant and Hobbes, Marx encouraged people that they are naturally good and capable to take control of their human nature. Marx concluded his eleventh thesis by challenging people to change the world with the knowledge that they have learned from other philosophers. He was trying to encourage people to be skeptical and to challenge everything that they hear, which will help our human nature to grow and improve.
