Kierkegaard creates an amusing paradox by defining the ethical existence in opposition to the traditional Greek rational approach by framing it within a rationalized framework. Perhaps his desire to be that ethical man while being unable to diaregard his need to be rational created his philosophical melancholy. Creating a dichotomy that one cannot reconcile within oneself certainly, at least at a glance, seems a recipe for internal anguish.
One of the most difficult aspects of practicing faith while attempting to be rational is accepting that certain facts amd ideas are unknowable and incomprehensible; to use the gifts of reason and free will, results of being created in God's own image, while submitting to the idea of being unable to grasp the infinite and seemingly paradoxical nature of the omnipotent and supernatural that separates God from his creation.
Choosing to believe, to utilize gifts and talents, but to accept an unscratchable itch of unfathomability is a task and a burden, given unto us almost as if pointing us directly to a need for prayer and meditation through which to know Him and His will, both celebrating our role as children and humbling us in our limitations.

I'm not sure how God telling Abraham to sacrifice his son would violate the categorial imperative, considering that God was in fact willing to do the same - sacrifice his own eternal Son, Christ the Logos. God wasn't asking Abraham to do something that He himself wouldn't do - This was a prophetic foreshadowing of the incarnation of Christ, where God the Father sends Christ to be a sacrifice to redeem the human race.
There is no other religion in the world where God sacrifices God for the sake of Man, all of the pagan religions sacrifice to the Gods in order to benefit the Gods in some way - and so the true Christian man must be willing to sacrifice himself and his sons for the sake of God, to make even the slightest attempt at reciprocating God, who sacrificed his own Son for the sake of our salvation and deification.
