The main purpose of this paper is an exploration of the Kierkegaard's fideistic stance and its implications for the religious education (RE). Accordingly, based on the Kierkegaard theory of the spheres of existence, faith and life, it is argued that the sprite of religious belief and religious behavior require individuality and freedom of choice to get help in selection of credo. From this on, before delving into the RE, has been paid to public education based on three principles of discrimination, freedom and individuality. RE in the religious sphere based on three principal features spirits, enthusiastic and mutation is given. It means that one, in the sphere, pursues to find a graver enthusiasm to demonstrate the high level of faith. Therefore, it is elucidated that the religious education upon the Kierkegaard's theory focuses on "religious belief" itself rather than rational alternative.
