I think to be evil, you have to have malicious intent, too. Freud and Kant just don't meet that criterium. They were trying to help and better mankind. Screwed up bigtime, to be sure, but were trying to help. Hitler...he was just a serial killer with the ability to do what he wanted.
Outta curiosity, why isn't muhammed on there? He wins hands down for me. |

Question is, did he know what his writings will lead to? Not necessarily. He was just sitting in his ivory tower coming up with theories.
That's why I chose Carson; she should have known what would happen when she did research for her book but ended up choosing nature over people. Maybe a better poll would be whose theories cause more evil, then Kant would be at the root of it, but can't blame him personally. |

I've changed my mind. Immanuel Kant is officially the most evil person to ever live. I've been reading about his philosophy, and he is singlehandedly responsible for destroying the Age of Enlightenment and putting us in the situation we are in right now with environmentalism, welfare, statism, etc.

Sorry...had to go with Hitler. I can't think of anyone more evil. I have to admit to being perplexed as to why Kant is on the list?
