    Kant's thinking of Morality was ancient thought and couldn't apply to the present day. It's the law of nature as Entropy spreading forward.
    I will just give an example so everyone would agree: Just look around in political landscape? People are righteously believing in what they're doing, and would be very rude and mean if someone else have different points of views.

    Do not disagree with the statements of Kant's Moral Philosophy, just his dependency on man as the source of moral determination. Jesus seems to have said it clearer and the source of his moral laws is a Omnipotent more law giver. I'll humbly go with my Savior.

    2:10 that is unless you not acting for those listed reasons (according to Kant).
    I do have a genuine question: where does Kant get his authority to decide "the good will" is actually good? What enables him to decide and not us, dispite us all being humans?

    Interesting video and well explained.

    Thank you so much! Kant can be challenging and I am using him for part of a Philosophy exam. This explains his moral ideas so well and breaks the original ideas into digestible pieces of knowledge. Suddenly, all my previous notes and understanding have come together. Please keep doing videos like this 😀
