Perhaps, but your honest admission not to have read him gets you
brownie points anyway ;-)

Kant, as it happens, placed a great emphasis on honesty and, in his
attempts to practically flesh out the categorical imperative, argued
that lying was always immoral. Now that's a point, given - in my view
- the inevitable situationalism involved in practical applications of
his basic moral pronciple, that one could happily argue about, but if
anyone really feels like doing that, I suggest they open another
thread ...
