kierkegaard

Once you label me you negate me.... but now with God's help I can become myself.

About Me

I am a 19th century Danish philosopher and theologian, generally recognized as the first existentialist philosopher(if I do say so myself). I bridged the gap that existed between Hegelian philosophy and what was to become Existentialism. I do not like Hegelian philosophy, it reeks with the stench of minds that have been soured by pride. Also I am sick unto death (Hey, I like that phrase) over the empty formalities of the Danish church.I have done some writing mostly under pseudonyms, I like to critique my own work in other works I do under different pseudonyms. I wrote this way so people would never be able to distinguish between what I truly believed and what I was merely arguing from the pseudo-author's position. But there is a purpose to my madness. This way people can't pin me down and label me, and then in there little academic journals negate me. All the academic’s do is write there weak-minded and trite rebuttals to each other. I would rather argue with myself, and so I did. But if interested read my later writing I did not care about playing games with the academic elite and I spoke plainly on what I truly thought.
