Is Kantian ethics a "consequentialist" or "non-consequentialist" moral theory? Why?
That makes sense. Do you know any examples of actions that Kant would consider inherently wrong, regardless of their outcomes?
Yes, Kant believed that actions that use people merely as means to an end, rather than as valuable ends in themselves, were inherently wrong. For example, lying or breaking promises would be considered wrong under Kantian ethics because they violate the inherent worth and dignity of the individuals involved.
