Faith

I really like how Kierkegaard is working with us to try to demonstrate the importance of faith and having good faith. It's really cool that he can refer back to the Abraham story and that will help him make his point a little more clear. I thought his chastising was really interesting on page 34 when he talks about faith not being an aesthetic emotion and that it was something much higher. It just reiterates how faith is something that sometimes people will talk about and use to exert their own feeling of superiority over others.
