| Summary: | Søren Kierkegaard, a nineteenth-century Danish theologian and philosopher, was a Christian who challenged Christianity. Like Luther in the sixteenth century, the Nordic thinker protested Christianity and, in his own way, brought about a new reform in the interior life of Christianity. Kierkegaard fights Christianity in an attempt to rescue what he called the Christic. Contrary to what is believed in its time, Christianity was not in the institutionality of the Church, nor in its clerics. Kierkegaard even relativizes the Bible by relegating the Christian experience to a relationship in which the individual is standing alone before the Absolute, without any mediations other than Christ himself. The thinker from Copenhagen understands that the central task of existence is to become oneself, that is, to individuate oneself. But, according to him, this is only possible in man's immersion in the Absolute Power that created him; it means that the individual's identity is in the BEING. Therefore, for Kierkegaard, far beyond a religion, Christianity is in its deepest sense a path of individuation. Our article aims to analyze how Kierkegaard elaborates this thesis. |
