Is there anything higher than reason?

[Marioxs34]

Hi, guys, i just read Kant's critique of pure reason. There, Kant says that the infinite nature of the cosmos can be easily critiqued by reason and, therefore, a mystical and arational study of the cosmos can be easily overcomed. What are your thougts on this?

What is meant by reason?

[Marioxs34]

Well, the use of your rational mind to explore reality

Do we know all there is too know about an Atom, one of the smallest aspects of reality? Does anyone know all there is too know about a cloud, a leaf, a blade of grass, or anything else on this planet? No they don't but these things affect all life, even a tiny Bee affects life as we know it, so reason will only go so far, beyond that is mystical experiences and grand knowing's that are not logic based or explained via logic or reason...

Stop wasting your time reading Kant.

Kant is a nerd.

Have to study Kant myself first. I've heard it is notoriously difficult, so stay open to the possibility that your conclusion might not be the whole story. Where does he say that?

Well so you mean Kant doesn’t agree with the rational paradigm?
