Immanuel Kant lived in the 18th century and is considered to be one of the greatest German philosophers and one of the central Enlightenment thinkers of all time. His philosophical revolution was to place the human at the center of the philosophical study of knowledge, morality, and beauty. He deeply believed that reason is the root of morality. His thoughts on the relationship between reason and human experience led to the notion of “procedural humanism” or “Kantian humanism”.
The work of Immanuel Kant is still relevant today as the humanistic values of Western culture are deeply influenced by the Kantian moral philosophy. His philosophy is called Kantianism
The fundamental idea of Kant’s “critical philosophy” - especially in his three Critiques: the Critique of Pure Reason (1781, 1787), the Critique of Practical Reason (1788), and the Critique of the Power of Judgment (1790) - is human autonomy. He argues that human understanding is the source of the general laws of nature that structure all our experience; and that human reason gives itself the moral law, which is our basis for belief in God, freedom, and immortality.

“One of the great German philosophers, Immanuel Kant, even dropped the idea that you can see things as they are in themselves, because he had no way of knowing meditatively. He was a great mind - but the greater the mind, the greater the difficulty of seeing clearly. Your mind grabs every information that reaches to you, screens it, sorts out whatever is adjustable with your existing knowledge, allows it, and whatever is going to disturb your mind - anything new, unfamiliar, a stranger - it rejects. It is said of Immanuel Kant, one of the greatest systematizers, that one girl proposed to him. In the first place it is bad that the girl should propose, it is always the boy who proposes. But the girl must have waited and waited and Kant wouldn’t propose; the idea never occurred to him. He was so much rooted in his head, the heart was denied. So the girl, feeling too much time had been lost, proposed. Kant said, “I will think it over.” How can you think about love? Either it is there or not. It is not a question to be solved, it is a situation to respond to. Either your heart says yes or your heart says no and it is finished. What will you think? It is not a business proposal. But it was a business proposal to Kant. Too much head-orientation makes everything businesslike. So he thought, and he not only thought, he went to the library and concentrated on the books about love, marriage. Then he noted down in his notebook all that was in favor of marriage and all that was against. And he thought and thought and thought, and it is said that weighing the pros and cons, he decided in favor of marriage because a few points were more in favor than against. So it was a logical decision. Then he went and knocked at the girl’s door, and the father said, “She is already married and a mother of three children. So much time passed… you come a little late.” Time is needed for the mind. The mind is always late because time will be needed and the situation will be lost. And when you knock at the door, the girl has moved - she is already a mother of three children. And this is happening every moment. Remember, a situation is there, so act, don’t think, because if you think the situation will not wait for you. The girl will have moved. And when you are ready to respond there will be nothing to respond to. Kant was ready, but the mind takes time and situations are moving. Life is a flow, a flux, it is not static; otherwise the mind would have found the answer. If the girl had remained…. But the girl was getting old, she was missing life. She could not wait, she had to move, make a decision. Life is not static. If life were static there would be no need for meditation. The mind would do. Then you could think, and whenever, after many lives, you knocked at the door, the girl would be waiting for you. But life is a flux, a movement. Every moment it is changing and becoming new. If you miss a moment, you have missed."

Even if you dont beleive in his divinity or miracles, there are still many similarities with Kants teachings and Jesus's. He taught about controlling your emotions but loving openly, treating people fairly, to be charitable without demanding things in return and to be moral without becoming egotistic. People tend to forget that the pharisees were the ones who believed that just living by the laws without doing good actions didnt make you a good person and he spent much of his life doing good actions, he helped the sick, the poor, and the dregs of society while shunning the rich people who simply avoided most sin while offering up sacrifices to pay their way into heaven. When the adulteress was to he stoned he didn't send thoughts and prayers, he stood up to the mob. Much of this aligns with Kants teachings, even his belief that morality came more from actions then just from your spirit or your faith.

[@EmmaAnimalWelfare]

This is so brilliant, and I had forgotten how much Kant's philosophy has dictated how and why we conduct science in the way we do. I work in animal welfare science, and throughout this video I was reflecting on how myself, my colleagues and others relate to animals. It's interesting to see the differences between my "hard-data driven" co-workers compared to known animal rights advocates in science, who often manipulate data and information to drive an agenda. Both of them are passionate about animals, but the former aims to make a difference based on truth and reason, to help influence policy and practically improve the field of animal care and conservation; the latter aims to skew reason and targets people's emotions to compel them to act. Sadly at the moment it's this that is driving a lot of policy decisions, and often leads to the detriment of animal welfare 😐. The science is so important when it comes to understanding what is best practice for protecting animals. It doesn't excuse animal mistreatment, that's the whole point of having ethics committees in science today! I'm sure Kant would have a few things to say about it if he were still around.

Also, I have bought time and saved lives by lying. When killers came, "I told them to go the other way." Unlike the judgement that the wife should have told the truth when the killers came for the husband. No!

Kant had thus formulated the main problem of constitutionalism, “The constitution of a state is eventually based on the morals of its citizens, which, in its turns, is based on the goodness of this constitution.” Kant's idea is the foundation for the the Constitution of the United States Kant was the authentic Libertarian The real definition of Libertarian - political philosophy, advocates a limited role for government in domestic and foreign affairs as well as a strong protection of civil liberties. Civil and political rights are a class of rights that protect individuals' freedom from infringement by governments, social organizations, and private individuals. They ensure one's entitlement to participate in the civil and political life of society and the state without discrimination or repression

I am surprised and saddened that I am the first to point this out but the US Constitution does NOT say anything about a right to happiness. There is a line about life, liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness. However, that is not in the US Constitution, it's in the US Declaration of Independence.

WELL SAID! I will add: The desire to help others and act on that desire with your free will, is a selfish act, because you want to do it and therefore do it. That decision first makes feel good (before the beneficiary even knows of the act). Then, upon the giving, the benefactor feels a second round of joy from his selfish act and the beneficiary will hopefully feel and express gratitude. The former is guaranteed the later is not.

#6 - Never Lie. Can’t agree with Kant about never lying. If a criminal shows up at my door looking to kill my husband, I certainly don’t owe him the truth.

I think when forced to choose between 2 evils, you choose the lesser of the two.

[@virgilioblanco5374]

In listening to this I further confirm that "Philosophers" throughout the ages were skillful shufflers of the superficial by Kant dismissing the role of "Religion" as the base of "Morality", showing that it promote "Beliefs" that falls short of "KNOWLEDGE", one, "Trusting" that the figurehead founder of a Religion is a "GOD-MOUTHPIECE", a MANIFESTATION of the DIVNE Overwhelming a human, other that awaken one's INNER-BEING that facilitate the "Message" conveyed. For sure, ALL "Religions"-"Belief" systems have been manipulated with intent of distancing the minds from one's True Being that is in fact one's "MOTOR-FORCE" within each being known as SOUL, itself PURE, INCORRUPTIBLE, ALLKNOWING, ETERNAL with it's "SUBTLETIES" that the "Material" world's intricacies easily distracts one from, hence the usefulness of "Solitude" and "Harmony" with one's "INNERSELF". The Hindus have made a BUSINESS form as well as "The Church", oblivious about the nefarious force that is the ABSENSE of the DIVINE BEING of "The SOUL" is but a Mustardseed of it's source. The "IMPIRICIST" is about the only "INDEPENDENT" search that might be led to "REAL TRUTH" provided one is not persuaded by the "Evil Personified" that we live in the midst of, it's been editing and manipulating the written word for many millennials, so that for long "Academia" have been to spawn convincing eloquent sophisticated ignorants with lofty titles and designations. Such is the FRAGILITY OF MAN. This from a non-Academic unbiased "IMPIRICIST" that see BEYOND the pale. PEACE PROFOUND!!!

[@Griemz]

I have never read anything about kant and thus won't form a definitive statement of what I think about his philosofy but it seems that his philosophy almost contradicts itself at some points or at least become very vague on its implementation of it. On the one hand he says humans are prone to corruption to which i fully agree, but then on the other hand he gives them this 'absolute' ideology. It's just like what happened with christianity and the inquisition in my eyes, people become blinded by their 'divine virtues' and justify their actions with it. Which brings me to my second point: he says his philosophy doesn't rely on divine virtues but on reasoning, but then he proceeds to basically say that if you see someone be oppressed, you SHOULD fight against the oppressor. (which in my eyes is quite the 'divine' statement)To which I respond: who is the judge? Are you yourself the judge? We've seen what happens then... Other point is that he seems to cast emotions aside as if emotions are 'bad' or not useful. While his whole argument of 'respect for other people' seems to be based entirely on a pov of compassion. Also saying stuff like dont make decisions on emotions as they will often lead to regret. Which again is such an 'absolute' statement as if there is no value in emotions. Then there's also nothing logical about treating other humans with respect. Logic doesn't define whats right or wrong. Or at least in my ideo of logic it doesn't. Maybe he means something else when he says reasoning. He also makes reasoning this ultimate path, or at least he makes it seem like it in this video and like how are you going to deal with people who just don't care or dont agree? How are you gonna win them over? Their reasoning would be like: ok i dont care about you, you dont have to care about me,... Their reasoning isnt going to lead to the same 'moral virtues' if they didnt already accept your underlying 'objective truths'. And then my biggest point is that of basically saying at the end: my philosofy overlooks your 'religion'. Which i think is quite arrogant, although i'm sure he's not an arrogant person based on his idea of the importance of loving other people. It's also kinda saying religion is 'wrong' in a sense, that you would be stupid to let 'religion' impede your 'oh so mighty logical reasoning' Again this is my opinion on him after 20 min of probably the worst video to watch if you wanna get to know his views. I really liked the video btw, just not as an educational one about his philosofy. I remain neutral on him for now, please tear my arguments apart if you can so that I can try to understand him more. There's many more problems that i thought of but they all kinda boil down to: its not exactly clear how he sees this actually implemented and its not clear how some of his points work together BTW his claim of: my philosofy is based on reasoning, not on objective truths, really brought up questionmarks in my head because it sure does seem in this video he bases his philosofy on objective truths like: reasoning is this holy tool, treat others with respect etc,... so I'm expecting very much that i'm just missing a LOT of information to make it all make sense. I dont believe he would be that ignorant or hypocritical. Oh and I forgot to bring up his point about you contributing to a murder if you lie to save his life

[@yamagvchi]

Do you have philosophers on your mind worth looking into? I’m just watching these as a pastime during work and Kant seems very limited or idealistic

[@Griemz]

@@yamagvchi I'd recommend Nietzsche (beyond good and evil) because he really touches on a fundamental problem, although i consider him a quite radical thinker. (I believe in individuality and dualism etc) I also recommend reading about Jung. (you can read the red book but its not easy to really comprehend and break down, at least for me) Although he might not be a philosopher, for me he kinda explored the idea of nierzsche further from a slightly different and less nihilistic angle. I also really like Slavoj Zizek, he's really hard to comprehend for me but I see him as someone who keeps everyone in check today. Being critical of a lot of different ideas especially capitalism. He also seems very nihilistic but I like how he can show the flaws of my beliefs about the world even tho i dont agree with him. Then you also have Viktor Frankl - mans search for meaning Theres also the art of war by sun tzu and lao te ching by lao tzu (taoism) which were the first ones i heard about. Lastly I think maybe the greek guys: aurelius, plato, aristotle I myself am thinking about reading george orwell and bertrand russel next. I think they might be ⁶ most applicable today.

One of my relatives was a friend of Kant, although being German, he probably had a different pronunciation. I think the family split between England and Germany before Kant, so he's probably a great grand cousin or some such. I don't think I'm a descendant, but I do like to think that he helped Kant develop some of this philosophy. It lines up quite nicely with my own, so maybe the disposition is in my DNA, or maybe it was taught, I really have no way to know

I think the example of the bartender doing her duty even in the face of personal tragedy conflicts with the 1st lesson to a degree.

In that case, the boss should give the worker time off - paid, in a perfect world - to grief, or any other form of support, because the server's personhood is more important than their job. Otherwise, the boss would be treating the server only as means.

[@bartfart3847]

In a number of essays on race and in various Lectures on Anthropology, Kant suggests that the human races differ with regard to their natural incentives and talents. They thus have different capacities to acquire culture and varying tendencies to perfect themselves. Kant here holds that only the white race "contains all incentives and talents in itself"; the American indigenous people, by contrast, are said to be indifferent and lazy and to acquire no culture; the "Negro race . . . acquire[s] culture, but only a culture of slaves; that is, they allow themselves to be trained"; the "Hindus" finally "acquire culture in the highest degree, but only in the arts and not in the sciences. They never raise it up to abstract concepts" (AA 25:1187). Against the background of such a racial hierarchy, Kant seems to attribute to the white race a privileged role in actualizing humanity's full potential. Non-white races, conversely, seem predisposed, on his account, to assume subservient and dependent roles.

If you listen this last slide number 10, ignoring the source I.e. Kant or any legend then you would be tempted to deduce that this is a discription much similar to a person with OCD. I wish to refer to the idea of inflexibility. Kant may not be rigid or dominating in his thoughts . I amy be mistaken under the influence of this commentary. Philosophy is meant for evolution of self and others. Dogmatic concepts or guiding principles could be perceived as inflexibly overpowering . Therefore such concepts may not liberate the individual but likely bind individual to guiding lamppost. Binding lamppost is not identical to philosophy. 🙏

20:40 Kant sounds like someone with Aspergers. His obsession with schedules, measurable effects, order, and with objective morality are all common traits with people who have aspergers.

Perhaps more effective sticking to what he actually wrote instead of imposing what you think he may or may not argue to fit your environmental leanings (however accurate or moral it is)

You can think like him by thinking the Thing in itself.But if you want to achieve similar achievement to him,you have to be a genius,a real genius.

There are many cases in which stealing is good praxis and morally correct

@6:10 "...as long as that demanded freedom does not interfere with other people's freedom and rights." the devil is always in the details.

Moral freedoms based on the basis of true reasoning.

[@TheLuigiex50]

Meaning betterment of society thru true freedom, true respect for people. The basis on true morality. It govern itself. You have freedom but you can't disrespect people or lower their humanity. You have to better society. Love other people.

Resist becoming dogmatic for Kant and being hyper-rational?

[@kekfreedomheritage5633]

We would like to discuss this video in the Philosophy Study Offering in the Kekistan University System (KUS). -- For example such key questions raised can include, What is the difference between "MEANS" and "MEMES"? And how does the concepts of "Respect" to others and to self, intersect with the aspects of "MEANS" and "MEMES", and in turn intersect with "freedom"? ---- These are just some example questions and points raised to help forge higher intellectual development, and higher quality freedom. ---- If you would like to know more about the KUS, or possibly visiting Kekistan please contact us, or a nearby Kekistani.

I read the first paragraph and oh boy it did not go well... If you wanna check it out, here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jamwfml5odKkfdU . I like that there are smarter people out there who are better able to understand his writings.

11:30 I don't agree with this. While it is true that in most cases lying is morally wrong, there are times when telling a lie is the best option. If for example you are living in Germany in 1942. You are doing your best to be a good, moral person and follow the law. You discover that your neighbor is hiding a family of Jews on his property. Then one day the police stop by and ask if you know of any Jews being hidden in the area. According to Kant lying to the police is morally wrong, you would be annualizing your dignity, even though telling the truth would lead to the death of not only the Jewish family, but your neighbor as well. Or, if your wife asks you if she is getting to fat. You know your wife is doing her best to stay healthy and thin, but as a person ages staying thin gets harder, and she has recently been gaining weight. Telling her that she is getting fat would hurt her feelings and it would not really help her. So you tell her she is doing fine. But children are much more honest. kzbin.infocjuvjvR3gbo

Stop voting for big government if you believe in individual freedoms. Vote for those who promote small government.

[@mobbs6426]

The wife example in number 6 presents a false dichotomy. Either she can tell the truth, or tell a lie, but there is a third option, which is that she can tell nothing. The video implies it would be more moral to tell a potential killer "he's upstairs getting a shower, won't even hear you coming" than to say "why would I tell you that?" Fine, lying could still be considered immoral in this circumstance, but so too can telling the truth, at least too plainly. Telling the truth in a roundabout way would be moral, "he's not skydiving" for example. In Kants own words, the killer is already an immoral actor, and to quite a high degree, so why would assisting an immoral act with the truth be considered moral. Moral would be to deter, delay, or detain the assailant in some way without resorting to deception
