    Thanks Professor. Hicks! No wonder some argue that Kant might be the father of postmodernism; he encourages his readers to accept his contradictory position on morality & reason as the “reality”, while arguing that it would be impossible to access any reality.

    Thanks, Stephen. Now I understand Kant's moral law better.

    Do you plan to cover Herbert Spencer? He is a giant of liberal thought who posthumously rivals Rand as the most widely defamed thinker. I would also be interested in Stirner, Comte, Langer, McLuhan, or Durkheim.

    I have but one imperative , in morals , which is , does these actions
    Conform to the nature of GOD .
    Man has freewill , to choose , either good or evil , with out this choice man would be incapable of love .
    Love is an act of the will , which can be made , or rejected.
    GOD is the standard of all things , and is the ultimate truth. Reason will chase its own tail like a dog , because it is incapable of setting standards , it can only
    Arrived at conclusions.
    GOD is a standard above reasoning as love is irrational.

      False premise. Existence precedes sense perception, which precedes the development of consciousness. Your god could not be conscious of anything as there would be nothing for him to be conscious of.

      He is first conscience of himself , as he is the first cause of consciousness which is life it's self.
