Buddhism
4 noble truths
8 fold path

Surrendering, resisting is bad, giving is is the right way

Kierkegaard
Subjective truth over objective
Rejected secular thinking
Abstraction
Story of Abraham
Inauthentic and authentic
Once a choice is made, it rules out all other choices.
Truth as subjectivity – How am I to exist
Denied the value of objective knowledge, which he referrs to as an imperative of understanding – cannot account for its existential quality
The difference between Christian man and regular man objectivily is nothing, however subjectively there is difference.
Objective understanding cannot reveal truth; it cannot give Kierkegaard or any existing individual reasons to live; it cannot answer the most importantant question; what am I to do?
The idea for which I can live and die- cannot be provided by objective, scientific, or philosophical or theologian arguments.


Nietzsche –
God is dead
Underman / overman
resentment / master morality
Attacted to Schopenhauer ‘will to power' rejection of his intellectual father.
