Autonomy of Personality

“Freedom, according to Kant, cannot be scientifically proven. For him science is always bound to sensory experience, to ‘natural reality’ as understood in the limited context of Kant’s own concept-ions. Freedom and autonomy of personality do not lie in sensory nature. They are practical ideas of man’s ‘reason’; their supra-sensory reality remains a matter of faith… Rooted in autonomous reason itself, it is entirely in keeping with the autonomy of the human personality.”
