Kant And Superman
Kant: No Mao! War can never be morally right. When Superman decided to fight Luther that is when he committed an immoral act. I think that Superman is a moral character because all rational beings would do the same and use their superpowers to save others.

Mao nods to Kant and reaches to the middle of the table to grab the book.

Mao: *whispers to himself: Superman: Red Son” *

Darwin: What did you say Mao?

Mao: I just realized that my communist party was symbolized by the Red Sun and the title of the book was Red Son. I also find it very ironic that in a communist society everyone is equal, yet superman is the opposite of equal. He defeats the idea that all men are created equal, but he is the ruler of the USSR.

Darwin: I totally agree

    Kashin v Kant

    Scope of employment refers to a person actively involved in an employment task at a particular time. It usually becomes an issue when an accident occurs, which is required to make a claim for work-related injury under state Worker's Compensation Acts. Also, in order to hold an employer liable for the wrongful acts of an employee, it may be necessary to show that the employee was engaged in duties in the scope of employment at the time of the wrongful conduct. The test is whether the actions of an employee further the business of the employer and are not personal business, thereby making an employer is liable for damages. For example, if an employee is en route to deliver goods to a customer and makes a detour to do a personal errand, any accident occurring while on the personal errand are not in the scope of employment and the employer is not liable (definitions.uslegal.com, 2014).…

    The Great Philosopher: Immanuel Kant

    Immanuel Kant is recognized as the greatest philosopher since Plato and Aristotle (Wolff). He is most widely known for his work in the fields of metaphysics and epistemology (McCormick). Kant published many works regarding his epistemological views, but his most famous work is The Critique of Pure Reason (McCormick). He noted that Descartes had “simply accepted consciousness as an…inexplicable fact” (Wolff). Kant utilized this observation to refute Descartes’ famous quote, “I think, therefore I am,” with a slightly revised premise— “I am conscious” (Wolff).…

    Nietzsche Superman Research Paper

    Though when most people think of superheroes they think of the type with super powers, the original idea of the ‘superman' was developed by Friedrich Nietzsche in the 1800s. The ubermensch (literally overman in German) never had extra-ordinary powers and wasn't developed as the protector of man. Instead, the superman is a person who has overcome all the flaws of mankind and is essentially ‘perfect.' This idea, though it was thought of as an ideal goal that all people should strive for, has almost completely been used for less-than-good agendas. The details of what Nietzsche's superman is supposed to be and how that compares with how it was used to the advantage of many dictatorships and other oppressive leaders is amazing and in many ways…

    Kant And Utilitarianism

    According to Kant, he believes that the only thing unconditionally good is good will. Good will is the idea of people having to do ones moral duty. Kant’s ethical theories are based off of the categorical imperatives. Categorical imperatives, as stated during class, act only on those rules that you can rationally will to be universal. In response to Kant’s theory, I believe that good will is not the only thing that is unconditionally good. I believe this because there will be many instances in life where having a good will can lead to tragic situations.…

    Emmanuel Kant Analysis

    Emmanuel Kant argues that the human understanding of our world is perceived by our experiences and only through them can we gain knowledge. Kant’s philosophic question is rooted in the theory of understanding; in short, what can we know and how can we know it? Most of our knowledge of the world can be derived from our observation of it. As children, we see things, touch things, smell things and so on. Gradually, we understand the world in which we live in; this is the knowledge of sense-perception. For example, wind has no physical form but we can see its effects and can classify it as being part of nature. Kant, however, perceives knowledge only through our experiences. So going back to the example of wind, Kant would say we have knowledge of wind not because we…

    Kant And Skepticism

    Immanuel Kant argued that although human knowledge comes from experience, nonetheless knowledge must be grounded in some necessary truths. It is hard to see how the existence of logically and metaphysically necessary truths is enough to ground human knowledge. Following Kant’s reasoning, there are certain types of knowledge we have no access to. I will argue that Presuppositionalism is more plausible than Kant’s skepticism about certain types of knowledge, and that from the Presuppositionalist perspective skepticism is self-refuting. If we don’t assume that God exists, we find that we can’t reach certain conclusions and are left wanting.…

    Immanuel Kant Analysis

    Immanuel Kant is a philosopher that has always stuck out because the way he approaches morality is particularly different than most other philosopher. Some would say that Kant’s philosophy works satisfactorily in a perfect world, but fails to account for how the world actually is, which is far from perfect. Even if this is true the groundwork of Kant’s work has still garnered the admiration of many philosophers that were during and after his time.…

    Kant was a deontologist who believed that knowledge was created by the mind, not external factors; because of this he wanted to unite reason and experience. Humanity’s frail nature was the human condition according to Kant, their struggle to make moral decisions and do the right thing can only be solved by employing reason and his three maxims when decision making.…

    Who Is Superman A Hero

    In 1933, Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel met for the very first time. They both enjoyed comic books very much. Siegel came up the idea of “strongman” and then Shuster drew him with a cape and red tights. A year later they named their “strongman” Superman. Over the years Superman has become one of the most popular American Hero’s. What makes Superman a hero and does Superman met the standards of a hero as outlined by David Lemmings? I will examine such things as his birth, his parents, his early childhood, his purpose and his final outcome. All these things are taken into consideration as we examine Superman’s journey to becoming a hero.…

    Kant's Theory Of Virtue Ethics Analysis

    No killing, no physically harming others, no lies, no theft, no breaking promise” (O’ Sullivan & Pecorino, 2002). This is not idea that is unheard of because strict interpreters of morals, values, and religion feel that under any circumstances should you cause physical or emotional harm to a person. But is does not truly relate to a person who works for FBI, CIA, polices, military forces, etc. For them they are morally obligated to uphold laws, protect and serve, and help those in need. The everyday person that has not been put through the same mental and physical training such concepts would and should apply but not here. By Kant idea there would be no revolutions, rebellions, or activist movements of any form. History has a record of wars or violent event that may have caused the lives of others but have resulted in a better tomorrow. The focus is not on the death but what the people were actually fighting for or died…
