His life is so parodically patterned that one needs only to tell it quite simply and thereby write a satire, just as his style is so parodical that just a careful reproduction of it, for example, polemically by Poul Møller in the past, or admiringly by Siegfried Ley, is a parody. This is a good demonstration that it is in itself parodical, that friend and foe by doing the same thing produce the same effect.— Pap. VI B 98:17 n.d., 1845

. . . . . no wonder that it can be taken for granted that we are all Christians. [VI B 27:2 100] I recall an incident from my own experience. Once in my youth I was in a group where the young people suddenly had the gay notion of wanting to dance. Music was produced and everything was unusually lively and gay. Unfortunately, I cannot dance, and therefore I withdrew. Then into the room where I was came a young lady, accompanied by an elderly gentleman, who obviously wanted to embarrass me. She invited me to dance—and I had to say that I could not dance. And yet to be able to dance is an accomplishment, but to be a Christian is something so easy, so completely gratuitous, that it must be frightfully disgraceful to admit that one is not a Christian when everybody else is—ergo, we are all Christians.[VI B 27:2 101]—JP I 456 (Pap. VI B 27:2) n.d., 1845

Changed from: in my inverted relation to you, because if you, imaginatively constructing, found it necessary to raise doubts, then it now seems to me, imaginatively constructing, necessary to bring out the religious in its true supranatural magnitude; if it perhaps was difficult at that time to understand doubt, then it is perhaps more difficult now to understand the religious—indeed, everyone in our day can explain it and go further.——Pap. VI B 98:21 n.d., 1845
