As for the no reproduction argument -do we also apply it to anybody who's had the snip or uses contraception or has sex after the menopause? Kant through your interpretation sounds just a teensy bit Catholic to me.  |
well Kant was from the 18th century prussia, and it would foolish not to think that Kants ideas may have been affected by the catholic church.
When i studied Kant another example was suicide, and how this was a moral contradiction.
here is a bit more information about what I am talking about in the OP, what I more or less refering to is the first formulation of the categorical imperative which is "Act only according to that maxim whereby you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law." from his book "groundwork of the metaphysics of morals"
