Document Summary
Tell the truth to the murderer, give people respect and do this by giving them opportunity to make rational and free choice) You should take responsibility for your choices a person who. The concept of autonomy fully rational infantilizing oneself (make the decision for me) you should be making your own decisions and taking responsibility for the decisions you make. Every rational agent has a right to the truth, says kant. People say it"s morally long not to lie sometimes (example a murderer wanting to know where your roommate is) may be counterintuitive , but you still have to respect the murderer and not withhold the truth. Strong argument against kant =once you have more than one perfect duty you can get a case of conflict. If you have a variety of perfect duties, it is conceivable they will collide.
