<em>A priori</em> is a <u>statement that is true without reference to or prior to any experience</u>. In the context of Immanuel Kant's categorical imperative, this is an <em>a priori</em> position.

Immanuel Kant defined a categorical imperative as a moral rule that is unqualifiedly applicable to everyone.

Kant is renowned for his claim that one should always see humanity as an end in itself and never as a mere means, whether it be in one's own person or that of another.

He was critical of moral ideologies that advise people to think about themselves once their obligations to others have been fully met.

He used our common experience of morality as his point of departure and the tentative assumption that our common knowledge of morality is accurate.

He contends that if there is a moral law, it must be intellectually convincing for it to be morally binding. He ignores the fact that we are all a part of a larger social network of ties and instead assumes that humans are essentially autonomous, private units free to uphold moral rule.

He held that the majority of individuals struggle more with acting than knowing what is morally correct.
