It’s so subtle what he’s saying believe in yourself

Kierkegaard mastered the becoming, his light so stunning !

Long time user of your videos, Prof. Found your stuff while taking Logic using the Hurley textbook. Your demonstrations and explanations on categorical, propositional, and symbolic logic were a necessary condition for my success. Since then, your material has been my go-to resource on most aspects of philosophy. I just started a class last week on Existentialism with Kierkegaard as the opening subject. This video could not be more timely. Thanks.

Who in the world would ever say something about passion like that at 27:51 this individual is pure genius. It makes me humble. He has plunged the depths of thought

[devonashwa]

Everytime I listen to something about kierk I am stunned by his thoughts. I literally just thought this thought today, the quote you read at around 23 min

[gazrater]

If faith can lead people to multiple conclusions, is that a good way by which to come to TRUE conclusions?

[leamercatwild]

Kierkegaard’s notion of “Necessity” is our “essential” limit. “…actuality is a unity of possibility and necessity.” A unity of freedom and necessity.

Locke descartes how do they relate to this

[devonashwa]

Everyone is in despair from the time we’re born to the time we die we have to suffer. Consciousness makes cowards of us all

How Kierkegaard effects post-modernism?

[martinrea]

I think you might have been searching for the Council of Nicaea, held in 325 AD, where the nature of God was discussed.

[devonashwa]

Proof becomes necessary, damn this guy is insane. People have faith so if a god showed up in person no one would believe that god has actually come to earth

[xXMoneyLensXx]

I'm very sorry but a lot of this is wrong. E.g. there is a stage before the aesthetic stage. And Either or is not about the ethical stage versus the religious stage, it's actually versus the aesthetic. And Kierkegaard did actually write alot about religion.

Kierkegaard was 17 in 1830 and entered the university.
Goethe died 1831
Hegel died 1832

Everyone had to read Hegel.

U are wrong on Christian belief that Jesus is fully God and fully man.
The correct belief is that Jesus is truly God and truly man. To be fully one thing and another at the same time in the same relationship is a contradiction.
