Reading Kant from my current vantage point and seeing that his mental model is hermeneutic interpretation of scripture and he is trying to transition from the supernatural ideal, to the secular ideal, but either cannot or cannot imagine how to speak in the real. Which anglo law would have taught him. Hume on the other hand expressly tries the existential method and succeeds. Hume is a scientist – an aristotelian. Kant is a n idealist – a platonist. He reads childishly to me now, where he read obscurely in the past. And it is increasingly obvious why the marxists and postmodernists ran to him for cover.
