The subjective existing thinker has regard to the dialectics of the process of communication\u003cbr\u003e2. The existing subjective thinker is in his existential relation to the truth as negative as he is positive; he has as much humor as he has essential pathos, and he is constantly in the process of becoming, i.e. he is always striving\u003cbr\u003e3. Lessing has said that accidental historical truths can never serve as proofs for eternal truths of the reason; and that the transition by which it is proposed to base an eternal truth upon\u003cbr\u003ehistorical testimony is a leap\u003cbr\u003e4. Lessing has said that, if God held all truth in His right hand, and in His left the lifelong pursuit of it, he would choose the left hand\u003cbr\u003eA. A logical system is possible\u003cbr\u003eB.

The importance of a preliminary agreement concerning what Christianity is, before there can be any question of mediating between Christianity and speculative thought. The absence of such\u003cbr\u003ean agreement favors the proposal of medication, while at the same time making any mediation illusory; the presence of such an agreement precludes mediation\u003cbr\u003e3. The problem of the Fragments is viewed as a problem, introductory not to Christianity, but to become a Christian\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nSection II. The Problem Itself. The eternal happiness of the individual is decided in time through the relationship to something historical, which is furthermore of such a character as to include in its composition that which by virtue of its essence cannot become historical, and must therefore become such by virtue of the absurd\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nA.
