Immanuel Kant was an influential German philosopher who lived from 1724 to 1804. He is widely considered to be one of the most important figures in modern philosophy, and his ideas continue to influence contemporary philosophical debates.
Here are some key points about Kant and his philosophy:
The importance of reason: Kant believed that human beings have a capacity for reason that allows us to understand the world around us and to make moral decisions.
The limits of knowledge: However, Kant also believed that our knowledge is limited by the structure of our minds and that we can never know the “thing-in-itself” or the ultimate nature of reality.
The importance of duty: Kant believed that morality is based on duty rather than consequences, and that we should act in accordance with the moral law because it is our duty to do so.
The categorical imperative: Kant’s most famous concept is the “categorical imperative,” which is a moral principle that states that we should always treat people as ends in themselves, rather than as means to an end.
The idea of autonomy: Kant believed that individuals have autonomy, or the ability to make their own choices and to be responsible for their own actions.
The idea of the “Kingdom of Ends”: Kant believed that we should strive to create a society where everyone is treated as an end in themselves, rather than as a means to an end.
The distinction between analytic and synthetic propositions: Kant believed that there are two types of propositions: analytic propositions, which are true by definition, and synthetic propositions, which can be either true or false depending on the facts of the world.
These are just a few key points about Kant and his philosophy, and there is much more to explore for those interested in delving deeper.

Immanuel Kant lived in the 18th century and is considered to be one of the greatest German philosophers and one of the central Enlightenment thinkers of all time. His philosophical revolution was to place the human at the center of the philosophical study of knowledge, morality, and beauty. He deeply believed that reason is the root of morality. His thoughts on the relationship between reason and human experience led to the notion of “procedural humanism” or “Kantian humanism”.
The work of Immanuel Kant is still relevant today as the humanistic values of Western culture are deeply influenced by the Kantian moral philosophy. His philosophy is called Kantianism
The fundamental idea of Kant’s “critical philosophy” – especially in his three Critiques: the Critique of Pure Reason (1781, 1787), the Critique of Practical Reason (1788), and the Critique of the Power of Judgment (1790) – is human autonomy. He argues that human understanding is the source of the general laws of nature that structure all our experience; and that human reason gives itself the moral law, which is our basis for belief in God, freedom, and immortality.

The producer of these videos’ Dr Timothy Hull has also written the introductory book “ Faith & modern thought. The modern philosophers for understanding modern theology A jargon -busting , myth -busting introduction. Cascade books WIPE and STOCK Publishers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9i_d4…
“I wish I had had this book as a student—it is so much more helpful and interesting than anything else on the subject. Tim Hull offers an engaging, clear, and utterly unpretentious introduction to modern thought and modern philosophy for theologians, while at the same time giving a sophisticated and fresh reading of the history of thought. A great achievement.”
—Karen Kilby, Durham University
“Dr. Hull is a gifted teacher who has produced a convincing case for understanding theology within the bigger context of philosophy. He produces masterly studies of Kant, Hegel, Barth, Pannenberg, and others, each from a fresh angle. The book abounds in homely illustrative anecdotes and short readable sections. The incarnation and Trinity receive a rightful place. Reading the book to the end will be amply rewarded.”
—Anthony C. Thiselton, Universities of Nottingham and Chester
“Tim Hull’s book displays his wonderful gift for making profound and influential ideas accessible and enjoyable to think deeply about. With clarity, creativity, humor, and illuminating exposition of the metaphors at the heart of their projects, he shows persuasively that key figures in modern Western philosophy must be understood as religious thinkers, and that several major thinkers in modern Christian theology cannot be adequately understood apart from them.”
—Ben Fulford, University of Chester
“Tim Hull’s conversational style, coupled with crystal clear thinking, forms a perfect introduction to the long, intertwined history of philosophy and theology. A thoroughly enjoyable and thought-provoking read.”
—Isabelle Hamley, Chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury
“The dominant trends in modern theology were largely shaped by the intellectual movements of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Recognizing the need for an accessible guide to the key figures and movements, Timothy Hull has produced a lively and informative introduction which should prove of much assistance to students.”
—David Fergusson, University of Edinburgh
