And if the 'infinite' truly 'exists,' then who can say what cannot?

The line from Kant to Hegel is intoxicating. Take care in mixing drinks.

The line from Kant to Hegel

I'm not sure which line you are referring to but I accept nothing from Kant. From the start he was a sophist.

And Hegel then?

And Hegel then?

Hegel presumed too much. If I am honest I recognize the fact that I do not have infinite memory. So how can I equate myself with God?

The question becomes, 'what can I know?' Kant presumes knowledge that precedes experience, something I can never know truly precedes experience. It is conjecture.

So what can I really know? What can I prove, if only to myself? What can I truly conclude, given what I can know?
