Kierkegaard and the dialectic of Abrahamic sacrifice

Christian Dior Mouloungui

Is there anything greater than morality? Should we leave what we love most in the name of the Absolute? These questions cannot appear insignificant, nor can they be ex nihilo. Because, in the light of Kierkegaard, we have sought, found and exposed the original and rational arguments to demonstrate the superiority of religious ethics over human ethics and of the individual-singular over the general. In front of faith, human reason becomes limited and spirituality imposes itself. Obviously, the requirement of the absolute duty towards the founding Ontology, which surpasses morality and suspends social norms, Kierkegaard names it teleological suspension of ethics. In fact, the human existence cannot be understood in the system, but rather in the realization of the individual-singular. That is why then he undertakes the revolutionary iconoclasm towards the Hegelian system and the religious worldliness. With his original arguments he has much to propose with all the fullness the freedom to choose the complete armor of the individual-singular in order to face courageously the existential challenges alienated in the shackles of the system.
