Since Marxism is more a critique of capitalist society and only very rarely a predicative tool, how does it fit in to Popper's definition of science. In other words, when Marx makes predictions, such as capitalism being the last stage of society in which class antagonisms will exist -- his prediction is of the eventual destruction of capitalism and eventual implementation of communism. He does not predict that capitalism will fall in 20 years or 50 years or 100 years, although he does predict the fall in the near future.
Kierkegaard's The Sickness Unto Death Part II is about sin, what sin is, how it develops, different kinds of sin, varying degrees of severity, etc. Unfortunately, this concept of sin and the related escape from despair through god are logical "leaps of faith" in Kierkegaard's philosophy which totally defy his emphasis upon dialectics.
