Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher who‚ like several philosophers at the time‚ contemplated and wrote about morality‚ specifically the origin of human morals. Kant‚ unlike these other thinkers‚ believed that morality and religion‚ two topics that were typically paired together when speaking about morality‚ should be kept separate because they did not belong together. Kant believed that the only way to determine what was morally right and wrong could only be found by engaging reason‚ not religion

Thomas Hobbes Vs. Immanuel Kant PART 1: Thomas Hobbes “Everyone is governed by his own reason‚ and there is nothing he can make use of that may not be a help unto him in preserving his life against his enemies (Hobbes‚ 120).” Thomas Hobbes‚ who is a considered a rational egoist‚ makes this point in his book Leviathan.

Antigone‚ like Kant‚ is governed by a philosophy of duty‚ but one that is very different from Kant’s. Antigone’s duty is to the gods. Unlike Kant who follows a sort of subjective moral law‚ Antigone’s moral law is far less arbitrary. She is obligated to uphold her family duties regardless of the circumstances. I believe this is what separates Antigone from both Mill and Kant‚ as well as Smith. Her actions are independent of circumstances. There
