Aren't in that case, religious believers, agnostics and atheists all in the same boat? In that case, they all find out what their morality to be, what their ethical code to be, by beginning with what they've been taught in the nursery, then revising that, in the light of their own consciences, of their own experience, of their own reason, asking themselves more or less deliberately: "what stands up and what doesn't stand up under scrutiny?" And then very much as an after thought there's Suddenly a difference between a religious person and an Irreligious person, mainly the religious person suddenly says, and this I believe because the Bible says so. But in that case isn't the religious person deceiving themselves? Is he really believing because the Bible says so? Apparently not because there's other things in the Bible that he doesn't accept! Doesn't God then become redundant. Doesn't God become irrelevant to life and aren't God and religion brought in in ways that are not entirely honest anymore.
Walter Kauffman on Kierkegaard's critique of Religion as an existential crisis.
Kierkegaard & the Crisis of Religion - Walter Kaufmann on Existentialism
But quite to the contrary that you should NOT pray together but that you should SHUT the door and prayer by yourself. Here Kierkegaard speaks as a true heir of not just Jesus but perhaps of the Prophets too.
Kierkegaard and the Leap of Faith -vid
The etymology of Faith is literally Fey or Light.
So to TURN THE LIGHT AROUND in meditation is literally the LEAP of Faith.
Why? Because light has a hidden noncommutative time-frequency phase to it as a "leap" or nondualism "supermomentum" or superradiance of light.
