This principle he says is of such widespread significance as to hold not merely for men but for all rational beings as such not merely subject to contingent conditions and expectations but with absolute necessity .17 He calls this principle the Categorical Imperative by contrast with those imperatives that are hypothetical . that hold only when the agent has certain goals. Kant offers several formulations of the Categorical Imperative which he regards as logically equivalent. One of the most important of these is the Formula of Universal Law which requires that we act only upon principles that it is rational to want everyone to act upon at all times. In Kant s words I ought never to act except in such a way that I can also will that my maxim should become a universal law. 18 The maxim is the principle upon which one acts whether or not one has ever consciously formulated that principle. The Categorical Imperative requires us to act only upon maxims which any rational being could without contradiction agree to act upon all of the time. One example which Kant uses to illustrate the universalizability requirement is of a person who obtains money by making a false promise of repayment. The maxim of such an action Kant says contradicts itself when proposed as a universal moral law because if everyone made false promises for personal gain the very institution of promising would be Since it is irrational to will the universalization of a self-contradictory maxim we must conclude that it is always morally wrong to make a false
