Reaction to Dr. David Callahan I was prepared to be interested in hearing this person speak‚ but when he started to list some “facts”‚ I started to tune out.

6/25/2014 Philosophy 201 Reaction to Kant Kant Kant first draws close to differentiating between a moral choice and a prudent choice. A prudent choice is a choice used in good judgment and is rational. Kant has no interest in morality being rational. A law is a law and thou shall obey it. The moral law is absolute.
