On Reality

If there's such a work as Introduction To Kantian Epistemology the complete text could be boiled down to three words: Reality is unreal.  Those of us who treat reality as being real learned a hard lesson back in the Twentieth Century.  It was believed by many the when Hitler spoke of clearing the Jews from Europe that he was speaking metaphorically.  It was when the Allied armies liberated the death camps that we discovered that Hitler was speaking literally.  To us who aren't under the influence of Kant and in fact value our lives a call for an act of murder has to be taken literally.  There's simply no other morally valid option.
