Stuck in a Moment
I'm a little confused about the role of "the moment". Kierkegaard says that the moment must have "decisive significance" in order to move from the Socratic standpoint, however I'm not sure I understand how this is accomplished. I know it has something to do with the fact that in the Socratic understanding of knowledge, there is no decisive moment at which one learns something, because we are only recalling, but I don't think this is all that there is to the story. I know this is a very technical question, but it is really hampering my ability to understand the rest of the reading.
