Kant's philosophy - The moral feeling: Reverence

Is morality based on rational insight as rationalism teaches or on a moral feeling as moral empiricists claim? Kant is a rationalist: According to him it is reason which gives itself a law and through which we recognize what our moral obligation is and what is morally forbidden. But in spite of that the moral feeling, that is the feeling of reverence, plays a central role in his moral philosophy: Because only through reverence which we feel for the law and our own free, autonomous nature as rational beings are we driven to actually do what we recognized as being moral.Quote: 0:08It's not enough for choice to pick actions that are in accordance with the law, it also must pick them for the right reason: 0:41Choice makes its choice based on feelings that function as driving springs: 8:48The moral sense theory: 23:21The moral feeling is not the yardstick but the driving spring of morality: 27:55There is a moral feeling, but no moral sense: 1:02:31The sentiment as a kind of moral sense: 1:08:47Kant's sympathetic synthesis of moral rationalism and empiricism: 1:21:55Pathological and practical feeling: 1:26:37Evil people don't know the practical feeling and think it's a pathological one: 1:48:44The moral feeling is sensual in its quality but supersensual in its origin: 1:54:36How the feeling of reverence comes about: 2:04:29Example: 2:30:56The role of the feeling of reverence in morality: 2:40:44Kant's inconsistency: 2:47:53Reverence for people is actually reverence for the moral law: 2:52:49Thanks: 2:54:49Most extensively Kant writes on the feeling of reverence and especially its origin in the main piece on the driving springs of practical reason in the Critique of Practical Reason: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Critique_of_Practical_Reason.Whoever wants to support my aufkläring work can do so via:https://ko-fi.com/jonathanivoloewerhttps://www.patreon.com/jonathanivoloewerhttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VDDT7T7XHR77UThumbnail: www.hotpot.ai
