Question

Is Kant's view correct? Does it make being moral the same as not contradicting oneself

Answer 1

The people who follow or practice the theory of Kant can be simply said as Kantian.Here the person has to do their duty without concerning for tte consequences. This consequence can be either positive or negative .His strong view was doing theft, killing others and lying to finish their duty are considered to be unlawful or sinful. It is a moral theory based on deontology as per Kant.He described about categorical imperative.This can help one to know what is moral and not.

In case of a new thing is done by a person and if that particular task is not acceptable or cannot be accepted and done by others then it is contradicting.When it is against others will ,desire ,thoughts then it can be an act of violating the rule .This is termed to be non-contradiction.The others should not be judged or commanded rather ,it is the duty of oneself to do it.In simple he categorized the things into rights and wrong.From this aspect Kant's view is correct.
