[MD] Kant's Motorcycle

[David M]

Hi Case

Yet there is only access to this stance via
the abstraction of our given stances
and imagining a larger perspective, but
full objectivity means full detachment, and
then you would be nothing and know nothing
and be empty of any values. This is the dilemma SOM hits. 
So we should always
see our rationalisations as grounded in our values 
and experience from which they are abstracted.
