> The knight of faith is an individual who has placed complete faith in himself and in God and can act freely and independently from the world.

In the West? A dude who doesn’t care about social media, gardens, stays fit, eats healthy, helps out their community, and approaches all interactions with love not derision or hubris. IE, just be a calm loving dude

He's as much a literary and poetical experience as a philosophical one, less so in the Upbuilding Discourses but especially in Either/Or, Fear and Trembling and Repetition. I definitely recommend him

Do you think a knight of faith = believer in God? Lmao you retarded cow.

I told you last thread you have no idea what you even believe.

I can call you a retard right now.

But Faith according to Kierkegaard is based on the belief that all things are possible through God and that all things work together to good for those that love God, read The Expectancy of Faith from the 1843 Two Upbuilding Discourses

>> No.17825552

>>17825539
That's the problem with Kierkegaard, people will always misunderstand him if they just read a two or three of his works.

Also to be clear I'm not talking about Kierkegaard's own beliefs, but I am saying it's ridiculous to think non-Christians can't get an enormous value out of Kierkegaard.
