| Summary: | I offer an exegesis of a few pages of the Concluding Unscientific Postscript and explain how going to Deer Park religiously fits into the general structure of Kierkegaard's thought.

Kierkegaard discusses how a person who is at that limit can maintain a less intense love of God as he allows himself to desire temporal things. |
