ATD: Dally con Kit

[Glenn Scheper]

Here is a model for Kit's teflon personality:

"This condition, for Kierkegaard, leads him to subordinate human relationships, 
sacrificing his own engagement in order to more nearly approach God"

(BTW, a good page:)

To accept the "absurd" opposition at the center of being is to know dread or 
anxiety and the sheer ambiguity of our powerlessness to remove this dread. We 
must live with the perpetual tension of "the infinite expanding factor of the 
self" struggling with "the finite limiting factors of the self," for "without 
dread there is only dogmatics." "Dread is the dizziness of freedom" which "gazes 
down into its own possibility, grasping its finiteness to sustain itself." It 
follows that freedom is as great as one's tolerance for ambiguity and anxiety. 
This condition, for Kierkegaard, leads him to subordinate human relationships, 
sacrificing his own engagement in order to more nearly approach God, who alone 
could resolve the rending of his soul.
