Sažetak
Author try to show the relationship between Kierkegaard and contemporary philosophical issues as existential faith concerning the already overshadowed horizon within which the concepts of »mind« and »faith« are again discussed. Kierkegaard’s three spheres of spiritual Being ─ aesthetic, ethical, and religious ─ come to mind with the question of the boundaries between thinking and belief about the very occurrence of what is no longer a Being or the beings, neither alive nor dead. How to approach it? Kierkegaard’s contribution to the thinking of Be[1]ing can be solved as a question of the subject of »philosophical faith«. It seems that such faith belongs to the future. Beyond all spheres lies a pure and spiritual place. Is it a habitus of God which can only be confirmed by »philosophical faith« in the event? In addition, should one finally abandon any possible »faith« to get a »faith« which no longer thinks of the openness of the historical event, but an event beyond the difference between philosophy and faith? An analysis shows that neither Jaspers’ attempt to establish a new »philosophy of faith« in existence, nor the restoration of the traditional opposition to thinking and belief in a contingent event, the power of technosphere in the creation of an artificial mind and artificial life as a result of the construction of a subject, reach the pure event itself. Instead, we should see whether it is possible to think the technosphere even in the form of metaphysical thinking of the aesthetic-ethical-religious criticism appropriate to absolute science in the shaping of inhumanity today.
