Assignment:

Can an atheist gain any philosophical insights from reading Kierkegaard's account of despair? If anything, what? Some possible answers include, but are by no means limited to: they can learn nothing; that despair is possible even if God doesn't exist; that despair would be our condition if God did exist; that "worldliness" is just as trivial and meaningless as Kierkegaard says, but there's nothing else.
