Immanuel Kant: The Categorical Imperative

What I expect to learn :


I expect what is maintaning one's moral goodness.
Review :
Immanuel Kant imperative discussed and illustrated the meaning of the rules of m
any problems towards people. Kant said that God can extremely hurt people. Ther
e are some qualities that can be really helpful and can make the work easier. Hi
s philosophy of good will is close in being a good person or a person of good wi
ll. There is no implied limit or qualification of in giving moral considerations
that will take affect to the determination to give moral support for others.
It is said that the hypotetical imperatives talks about what you did before.Plea
sure and intelligence has also something to do with good will because it does no
t require giving up in on every person's moral certainties. Kant expressed extre
me dissatisfaction with the popular moral philosophy of his day, believing that
it could never surpass the level of hypothetical imperatives: a utilitatian says
that murder is wrong because it does not maximize good for the greates number o
f people, but this is irrelevant to someone who is concerned only with maximizin
g the positive outcome for themselves. Consequently, Kant argued hypothetical mo
ral systems cannot persuade moral action or be regarded as bases for moral judgm
ents against others, because the imperatives on which they based rely too heavil
y on subjective considerations. He presented a deontological moral system, based
on the demands of categorical imperative, as an alternative.

What I have learned:


I have learned that pleasure and intelligence has also something to do with good
will.
