"Thus Kantian autonomy, once it is understood, will disappoint those shallow minds and immature souls who are attracted to the doctrine of autonomy for the wrong reasons. They were hoping for some radical individualist revolution in morality, in which paroxysms of human self-will overthrow the divine will’s numinous majesty . The sober rationalism of Kantian ethics is equally incompatible with voluntarism in its theological and its Promethean forms."
