Dread and Anxiety
It is important to recognize that one
experiences fear of specific objects and dread, a feeling of general
apprehension. Kierkegaard saw this as God's way of calling each individual to
make a commitment to a personal way of life. Heidegger called it Anxiety,
also having a similar moral role, that leads to the individual's confrontation
with nothingness and with the impossibility of finding ultimate justifications
for the choices he or she must make.
