“When considering -the- event of history, namely the incarnation, Kierkegaard does not de-historicize this event to make faith more palatable to a sophisticated modern audience. Instead, employing contemporaneity he accentuates the historicity of the event, and then identifies our response to it as -either- faith -or- offence. In this way coming to have faith, and thus becoming a whole, authentic person, is essentially and inextricably tied up with the attitude towards an historical event.” FaithHistoryOffenseIncarnation Book:Kierkegaard's Critique of Christian Nationalism Source: Kierkegaard's Critique of Christian Nationalism
