Kierkergaard inspired Wittgenstein on religion. According to both philosophers, we should not criticize religion from a scientific point of view.
Here some quotes from Wittgenstein:
"If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present".
"What we cannot speak about we must passe over in silence".
"The place to which I really have to go is one that I must actually be at already".
"Death is not an event on life: we do not live to experience death."
"All too often philosophers thinks with their heads without using their eyes."
"The meaning of a word is its use in the language".
According to Kierkergaard religious beliefs are non-objective truth and non-standard understanding.Ethics, aesthetics and metaphysics belong to the innefable.
