Kant's imperative is good
Christian Democrats should be in opposition
social democrats should be in power

Reading Kant gave me a headache. My understanding is that he wrote in opposition to David Hume?

Reading Kant gave me a headache.  My understanding is that he wrote in opposition to David Hume?

I also have a lot of issues with Kant’s moral imperative. Must be my utilitarian upbringing.

The most well known objection is the ‘lying to a murderer’ scenario: Joe comes to you and says, ‘I’m going to murder Jim. Tell me where he is.’ In order to obey Kantian hypothetical moral imperatives (because they require truth-telling to be a universal obligation), you’d have to give up this information. As a utilitarian (greatest good for the greatest number), you have a moral obligation to lie to Joe to save Jim’s life and to keep Joe from going to prison for murder.
