@ TELEGRAM: “THE TRUTH IS A TRAP: YOU CAN NOT GET IT WITHOUT IT GETTING YOU; YOU CANNOT GET THE TRUTH BY CAPTURING IT, ONLY BY ITS CAPTURING YOU.“ SØREN AABYE KIERKEGAARD SØREN AABYE KIERKEGAARD WAS A DANISH THEOLOGIAN, PHILOSOPHER, POET, SOCIAL CRITIC, AND RELIGIOUS AUTHOR WHO IS WIDELY CONSIDERED TO BE THE FIRST EXISTENTIALIST PHILOSOPHER. HE WROTE CRITICAL TEXTS ON ORGANIZED RELIGION, CHRISTIANITY, MORALITY, ETHICS, PSYCHOLOGY, AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION, DISPLAYING A FONDNESS FOR METAPHOR, IRONY, AND PARABLES. MUCH OF HIS PHILOSOPHICAL WORK DEALS WITH THE ISSUES OF HOW ONE LIVES AS A “SINGLE INDIVIDUAL“, GIVING PRIORITY TO CONCRETE HUMAN REALITY OVER ABSTRACT THINKING AND HIGHLIGHTING THE IMPORTANCE OF PERSONAL CHOICE AND COMMITMENT. KIERKEGAARD'S THEOLOGICAL WORK FOCUSES ON CHRISTIAN ETHICS, THE INSTITUTION OF THE CHURCH, THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PURELY OBJECTIVE PROOFS OF CHRISTIANITY, THE INFINITE QUALITATIVE DISTINCTION BETWEEN MAN AND GOD, AND THE INDIVIDUAL'S SUBJECTIVE RELATIONSHIP TO THE GOD-MAN JESUS THE CHRIST, WHICH CAME THROUGH FAITH. HIS PSYCHOLOGICAL WORK EXPLORED THE EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS OF INDIVIDUALS WHEN FACED WITH LIFE CHOICES. SOME OF KIERKEGAARD'S KEY IDEAS INCLUDE THE CONCEPT OF “SUBJECTIVE AND OBJECTIVE TRUTHS“, THE KNIGHT OF FAITH, THE RECOLLECTION AND REPETITION DICHOTOMY, ANGST, THE INFINITE QUALITATIVE DISTINCTION, FAITH AS A PASSION, AND THE THREE STAGES ON LIFE'S WAY. BY THE MID-20TH CENTURY, HIS THOUGHT EXERTED A SUBSTANTIAL INFLUENCE ON PHILOSOPHY, THEOLOGY, AND WESTERN CULTURE IN GENERAL. #sørenaabyekierkegaard #historyandphilosophy #innabesedina #sørenkierkegaard #kierkegaard #alienation #abstraction #despair #philosophy #existentialism #education #westernphilosophy #knowledge #wisdom #christianexistentialism #existentialpsychology #cognition #ethics #pathos #passion #studying #beautiful #beautifulquotes #beautifulthoughts #thoughts #philosophical #philosophicalthoughts #educationalvideo #educational 00:00 SØREN AABYE KIERKEGAARD 02:00 PHILOSOPHY / ALIENATION 04:15 ABSTRACTION 04:41 DEATH 05:15 DESPAIR 05:34 INDIVIDUALITY 06:19 PATHOS (PASSION) THIS VIDEO CONTAINS PHRASES / QUOTES BY SØREN AABYE KIERKEGAARD.
