HUMAN DESPAIR AND THE CONCEPT OF SIN

What human being is not immersed in despair?Thus this analysis on human despair and the concept of sin by the Danish philosopher Søren Aabye Kierkegaard aims to present the most relevant points that the author himself experienced throughout his human existence. Thus despair would be what the author defines as a mortal disease: it is to live death in his humanity and perish in life itself. Since for the philosopher there is no way to reach this conflict unless the discontentment and anguish in relation to life. This happens when the individual does not recognize himself as a sinner and does not recognize himself in his own interior. Finally the liberation from despair and sin is made only when the individual places himself in reflection of his own interior being that unfortunately this is the only existing evil that the individual does not have the possibility and the probability of being cured.
