Moral Theory Of Kantianism

The moral theory of Kantianism deals generally with the basic of determining the fundamental principles of morals in life. The first main part of Kantianism is the qualification of will for, “Nothing can possible be conceived in the world, or even out of it, which can be called good, without qualification, except a Good Will” (85). With that being said, Kant is stating, attributes that an individual may be capable of having desirable traits such as intelligence. But the way a person makes use of this gift constitutes their character. For someone of ill-will could perhaps turn something of good character into something that is not in fact good and use it immorally.

But the benefits yielding to mankind from that suffering could perhaps from a sense overwhelm and outweigh the harm posed to them. So that it would be the utilitarian moral choice to used animal for human purposes. With that being said the human purpose that would be most notably the clearest case for animal experimentation would be for medical purpose. For medical experimentation could be capable of yielding great benefits to mankind in terms of medical technology. For these advances in technology could create so much human happiness and positive welfare that it would be worth the cost to the animals. Or another argument could be the pleasures of consuming the meat could generate so much human pleasure it could not possibly be outweighed by the pain to the animal. However, this is a weaker argument, since the pain to the animals is substantial to the pleasure of
