In chapter 3, we were introduced to different ethical theories and how they were divided. In the sub-section 3.3.3, “Non-consequentialist theories”, it got my attention particularly the Kantian Deontological Theory. While I was reading this theory, I was able to understand that Kant focused on how to fix moral obligation and that he believed that all people had the same reasoning ability however he had made offensive comments against women and non-Europeans. He believed that these groups of people did not have the same capacity of understanding as European people because they were not descendent European and their gender. I disagree with Kant’s theory because it contradicted itself and only was focused to a small group of people (Europeans).
