Entry: Second Spring Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/second_spring#21544 Post contents: <i>If Christianity brought us Kant, a Jacobin theory of human rights, and ‘the first genuine democracies,’ then what exactly did Satan bring us?</i> Papal encyclicals and statements within the last 40 years have attempted to harmonize rights language with Catholic teaching, and it has been said that JP2 made much use of Kantian language in order to evangelize moderns. So it is not surprising that other Catholics would try to appropriate Kant in some way. Sent at: 2008 10 06
