Duty And Reason As The Ultimate Principle Kant

Duty and Reason as the Ultimate Principle: Kant
Kant claims that only actions from duty have moral
worth. In other words, actions from motives other
than duty deserve no positive moral evaluation. I
like and agree with Kant's view because I believe
that a good will makes a good person. I also
believe we have all been put on this earth to do
our duty. We should do our duty just for duty
alone; we should not be concerned about anything
else. I will begin by discussing Kant's
distinction between wh...

Books I And Ii Sin And Death

The question, Satan as a seducer? is a very
different and unique angle to view his character.
To some extent, he does play a role as a seducer

other people believe and furthermore trust in him.
