Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Kant believed that for an action to be truly voluntary, we must be able to formulate or explain the rule that guides our behavior. This means we must have a clear understanding of why we are acting in a certain way and what principles or values we are adhering to. Blindly obeying rules without understanding the intention behind them is not sufficient for Kant. Similarly, involuntary actions are not subject to the same requirement, as they are not under our conscious control.
