Elyse: Erm... I guess that would be me. I wrote a response 
where it was supposed to be Kantian but I left out the K by mistake.
Aaargh....I tried so hard to eliminate my post of all typos but
there must be a jinx on my fingers.

The only reason I brought up Kant was because of a comment on HPfGU
Fantastic Posts that goes "Kant is arguably the Snapiest philosopher"
,one that I could never comprehend. Can anyone accept my challenge 
to prove to me that Snape's thinking goes along the lines of Kantian 
philosophy? <eg>

The link to my post is here:

if anyone wants to read it. (I cant believe someone read it and 
remembered it not to mention decoding the typos)

Elyse, eating Nora's chocolate...
