The authors present Kierkegaard's conception of spiritually developed personality that Kierkegaard calls a single individual, and the factors that prevent a person from becoming a single individual. There are four factors stressed by the authors: the public, the established order, journalism and press, and pseudo Christianity. In this context, Kierkegaard's notions of self, crowd and truth are explained, and the importance of innerness, radicalism and passion. The analysis shows that it is at the heart of Kierkegaard's understanding of man and society the relationship "human-God", in its Christocentric form. It also becomes apparent that despite Kierkegaard's stressing of subjectivity, and importance of innerness, the claims that Kierkegaard is an individualist are unjustified. Kierkegaard is a relational thinker, not only in the vertical respect, "man-God" relationship, but also in the horizontal, social one, "man-man" relationship, as his goal and ideal is the formation of a community. He distinguished the latter from the crowd as a corrupt form of sociality. In real communities, people are connected via God - the matrix is "man-God-man". The authors' final observation is that Kierkegaard's ideal is a community pervaded with Christocentric radical obedience to God. Such a community is in opposition with the aforementioned four negative factors of shaping of single individual. This is not surprising because the cornerstones of the community in Kierkegaard's sense are God and single individuals, i.e. the persons who live out of their genuine relationship with God and on this basis also cultivate their relationship with others.
