We can cognize change
Time cannot be sensed
All representations are successive
In the perception of an event the order of representation is fixed.
Cant has to assume what causal relation are going to be.
The refutation of ideals
Kant takes on Descartes and Berkley
o Berkley (AGAINST) YOU CANT KNOW THE STATE OF YOUR
MIND
o Descartes how you know what is going on in your mind is
what is going on in the world.
o You what is going on the world by that state.
o How you describe what is your minds.
Idealism has nothing to do with external world.
o It has to be.
We know our mind through the external world.
We know that causes necessitate. A boat on a current moves.
o Hume did not believe causes necessitate. Just some type of
pattern. Compatibilist.
o causes necessitate for KANT
Dialectic _ critic of pure reason come in.
o Reason leads us into errors. Serves as proof of transcendental
idealism (limits on our understanding) we can understand on
space and time and through casual interacts. If something
doesnt fit we cant know.
o Phenomena(you can know) and noumena(cant know)
o If Phenomena were things in things in themselves?
What we know is all there is transcendental realism (things in
themselves) this will lead to a contradiction. An indirect proof.
Antinomies

o Freewill and god (4)

Thesis (space is finite ) and antithesis opposite
P by proving ~p. with an eventual contradiction
If you got an infinite amount of time to synthesize.
The world as a whole is not something you can cognize. Or infinite
time. This is the contradiction.
Free WILL.
Kant is a necessitarianism (no compatibilist).
Thesis: there is freedom, antithesis: just laws of nature
o Through contradictions you can prove the Antinomies.
Causality of the cause. (boat is sitting there) when you look at a
cause, you cannot look at the whole cause prior to the effect.

Solution of the Antinomies (both true) god and freedom.

We have intelligible character.
What is everyone did that? A solution through ethics. It is an
intellectual grasp that grants this. Action of this comes from our desire of
wanting all to not do the same that you wouldnt do. You can just get it. A
priori
Indeterminism issues.
