Immanuel Kant

Simplified Meaning:

When we stop blindly following strict rules and teachings without thinking, we start to understand what is truly right and wrong. Imagine you always follow your friend's advice without questioning it. One day, you start to think for yourself and realize that some of their ideas were not the best. Now, you make choices based on what you believe is fair and just. For example, in history, people used to think the Earth was flat because that was the widely accepted teaching. When scientists like Galileo questioned this belief and presented evidence, people slowly began to understand the truth. This shift allowed society to develop a more accurate view of the world. In your own life, consider a situation where you always listen to one source for all your information. If you start exploring different viewpoints and using your own judgment, you might find better, more ethical ways to act. This approach helps create a world where decisions are made based on understanding and fairness rather than outdated or misleading ideas.
