O knihe

Christian existentialism relies on Kierkegaard's understanding of Christianity, who argued that the universe is fundamentally paradoxical, and that the greatest paradox of all is the transcendent union of God and man in the person of Christ. Kierkegaard also posited having a personal relationship with God that supersedes all prescribed moralities, social structures and communal norms, given that following social conventions is essentially a personal aesthetic choice made by individuals. Kierkegaard proposes that each of us must make independent choices that will then comprise our existence. No imposed structures even Biblical commandments can alter the responsibility of individuals to seek to please God in whatever personal and paradoxical way God chooses to be pleased. Each individual suffers the anguish of indecision until he makes a leap of faith and commits to a particular choice. Each person is faced with the responsibility of knowing of his own free will and with the fact that a choice even a wrong choice, must be made in order to live authentically.
