I knew Kant, and you're not him!

"We cannot expect ordinary people to be better philosophical moral reasoners than Kant. Kant’s philosophical moral reasoning appears mainly to have confirmed his prejudices and the ideas inherited from his culture. Therefore, we should be nervous about expecting more from the philosophical moral reasoning of people less philosophically capable than Kant."

Want to "be dissin' on Kant"? Read this in The Splintered Mind. Watch out for naughty bits.
