Question 41

Multiple Choice

According to the philosophy of Kierkegaard and Nietzsche, which of the following is true?


A) Soren Kierkegaard believed that there are three stages of life experience; (1) antithesis, (2) exploratory, and (3) resolution. All humans will gradually progress through each stage and must always be skeptical about knowledge derived from the senses.
B) What made Kierkegaard an existentialist was his emphasis on life experience as a means of saving the soul. This was in contrast to other philosophers who believed that the first order of business was to consider the meaning or essence of the soul; they (not Kierkegaard) believed the soul provided the individual with a guide of how to live his/her mortal lives.
C) Friedrich W. Nietzsche supported the ideas of Kierkegaard and, like Kierkegaard, opposed the physical and intellectual development of an individual's development because it would take away precious time from nurturing the soul.
D) The good of society, and not the individual, is at the "center/focus" of human existence.
