Kant believed that imperfect duties are those that we have the freedom to choose when and how to fulfill, such as helping others or self-improvement. In contrast, perfect duties are those that we must always fulfill, such as telling the truth or keeping promises. Imperfect duties allow for personal discretion, while perfect duties are absolute and non-negotiable.
Kant's third critique, also known as the "Critique of Judgment," focuses on aesthetics and teleology in nature. It explores the nature of beauty, the sublime, and the role of judgment in our experience of art and nature. Kant also discusses the concept of purposiveness or design in nature.
One formulation of Kant's categorical imperative is the principle of universalizability, which states that you should only act on those maxims (personal principles or motivations) that you can will to be a universal law applicable to everyone. In other words, if you wouldn't want everyone to act in the same way you're considering, then you shouldn't act that way yourself.
Immanuel Kant's philosophy of religion emphasized rationality and moral duty. He believed in a universal moral law grounded in reason, and he proposed a rational approach to religious belief that emphasized ethics over specific dogmas or rituals. Kant's perspective on religion influenced later thinkers and religious movements.
Kant doesn't believe that the consequences of an action matter at all – only the intentions count. In a Kantian system, a drunk driver and a drunk driver who hits and kills someone would be punished equally. Kant also has a very strict definition of what it means to act with good intentions – it means to follow the categorical imperative that Kant postulates. A good example of where Kant offers a counter-intuitive answer is in the Ax Murderer scenario. If an ax murderer came to your door, and inquired where a friend of yours was so that he might kill your friend, Kant says that while you can make every effort to help your friend, you must not lie to the murderer. There are ways to get around it, but it's a good place to start with a criticism of Kant.
