Kant's philosophy - Radical evil

Evil for Kant is more than just a lack of goodness. It cannot be explained by the sensual drives in a person simply being stronger than reason, he who’d rather follow them than the moral law must already have decided to allow them more influence on his actions than the thought of duty. The propensity for this, which every person, even the virtuous and wise one, bears, Kant calls the radical evil in human nature.Quote: 0:08Evil: 1:14Humans aren’t evil out of an evil will: 9:10Humans aren’t evil because of being overpowered by their sensuality: 24:57The radical evil in the human being: 41:40Everyone has a propensity, even though not necessarily an appetite or inclination, for evil: 1:10:09Man is neither good nor evil by nature, but not a moral being at all, but he has a propensity for evil and a predisposition for good: 1:33:00The three types of radical evil: 1:44:27Deceit as the root of evil: 1:54:19Because of the propensity for evil man can only be good through virtue: 2:27:53Thanks: 2:49:56On radical evil Kant talks mainly in the first main part of his Religion within the Bounds of Reason Alone: https://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/ethics/kant/religion/religion-within-reason.htm. For fully understanding it however it’s strongly advised to also read his handwritten estate on anthropology: http://korpora.org/kant/aa15/ and especially on the philosophy of religion: http://korpora.org/kant/aa19/615.html (I am not aware of any free English translations online).
