Kants radical evil. Religion within the boundary of pure reason

More about the book

Kant's assertion that human nature is inherently evil raises significant questions in moral philosophy. The essay explores two interpretations of this claim: one suggesting that external factors, such as the environment, cultivate evil in individuals, and the other positing that humans are born with an intrinsic tendency towards evil. The author argues that Kant's perspective may not align with either interpretation, prompting a deeper examination of the complexities surrounding human morality and the nature of evil.
