Top Comments of this video!! :3
The dark night of my soul began while I was in the seminary, studying to be a priest. I left the church but said night continued for the next decade. Suicide was fought off only by thoughts of family. Reading Kierkegaard literally brought me back from the brink and opened up what has turned out to be a very fulfilled life.

When I consider Kierkegaard as you have described him and his understanding, I feel unsettled, even a bit frightened. Not that as a Christian I have gone the wrong way, but that maybe in being a Christian I have not gone nearly far enough. Not entirely pleasant, but still much appreciated. Thank you for this.

If you believe the house you live in will burn down with everyone in it 5 minutes , won't you do EVERYTHING in your power to get everyone out? Everything- including drag them out, act crazy, ANYTHING. If we, christians, believe the same about hell, shouldn't we be more "on fire" for Jesus? I question whether I and those who call themselves Cristian, are truly Christian. " many will come to me and say Lord did I not cast out demons in your name And I will say depart from me sinner, I never knew you. " I am so happy to have found the works of Kierkegaard! thank you for making this videoâ¤

I am an old student of S.K., whom I discovered in 1973. It began when I took a course on Existentialism in college....my Southern Baptist mother said, "Exi...what-ism???"... and our main readings came from S.K. and Nietzsche. I loved it then, still do and in that vein will say that this was a very fine teaching video. Very insightful information. I subscribed because I think that you have more insights I need to hear about.
Thank you and I'll be "seeing ya!" next time.

This is an amazing video summary about Søren Kierkegaard. Personally speaking, don't agree much with the idea that Jordan Peterson is the 21st Century Søren Kierkegaard, nothing against him, in fact he was the first person that has driven me into Psychology and Philosophy but he is no more than as you said the bridge from the esthetical life to the ethical life.
In another hand Søren Kierkegaard is inviting you to take the last step and that is the religious one. I agree so hardly that it is a very hard step because it needs commitment without waiting anything in return, but the driver that leads you to do that is your faith.

"The motivation of the Aesthete is not a positive moving towards pleasure, it's a negative moving away from boredom." Holy cow this is insightful.
