What are Soren Kierkegaard's philosophies on God?

Answer 1

He supported church-state separation, did not believe in organized congregations of Christians, and felt that Christianity had become obsolete and overly secularized. On the other hand, he also felt that religion was one of the highest states of mankind, but in more of an individualized sense, rather than in a corporate or organized sense. He also wrote on the relationship between religion and ethics. He thought there were several types of religion, one of which was a search for truth, and another that focused on man's sinful nature, and was (to Kierkegaard) thus a departure from the truth.

Answer 2

Søren Aabye Kierkegaard (IPA: [ˈsœːɐn ˈkÊ°iɐ̯g̊əˌg̊ɒːˀ], but usually Anglicized as [ˈkirkəgɑ(ɹ)d]; Listen (help·info)) 5 May 1813 – 11 November 1855) was a prolific 19th century Danish philosopher and theologian. Kierkegaard strongly criticized both the Hegelianism of his time, and what he saw as the empty formalities of the Danish church. Much of his work deals with religious problems such as the nature of faith, the institution of the Christian Church, Christian ethics and theology, and the emotions and feelings of individuals when faced with life choices. His early work was written under various pseudonyms who present their own distinctive viewpoints in a complex dialogue. Kierkegaard left the task of discovering the meaning of the works to the reader, because "the task must be made difficult, for only the difficult inspires the noble-hearted".[3] Subsequently, many have interpreted Kierkegaard as an existentialist, neo-orthodoxist, postmodernist, humanist, individualist, and many more. Crossing the boundaries of philosophy, theology, psychology, and literature, Kierkegaard came to be regarded as a highly significant and influential figure in contemporary thought.
