In Kant’s time, peasants would sometimes sell their teeth to wealthier individuals who needed them. Kant objected to this, and he would presumably, for similar reasons, object to selling organs (like kidneys) in the present day. Which of following most accurately characterizes Kant’s reasons for objecting to selling parts of one’s body?

Options.

) The pain caused by having a tooth or an organ extracted is severe — severe enough to outweigh the pleasure that the recipient will enjoy. b) Extracting teeth and organs is disgusting, and, therefore, morally wrong. c) Extracting teeth and organs inherently involves a certain amount of risk. Something could go wrong, and the procedure could result in infection, further illness, or death. Kant says that we are not allowed to take risks with our lives. d) By selling part of her body, a person would be treating herself as a mere means, and not as an end in herself. e) An individual’s body is owned by God, and so she is not free to do with it whatever she wishes. God has ultimate ownership over her body, and so selling a tooth or an organ would require selling something that one does not actually own.

By selling part of her body, a person would be treating herself as a mere means, and not as an end in herself

Explanation:

Immanuel Kant(1724-1804) Philosopher, brought  a paradigm shift in context of duties and right  of humanity.He reasoned that humans are rational beings  that should be accord with dignity and respects they deserve,.

Thus  in contrast to utilitarianism he contended  that morality is not about  happiness  in totality, or the  right  to own once life,but rather the need to respect humanity as ends in themselves.

Thus Kant  promoted that man should be treated with respects with dignity, and he should be able  to exercise his fundamental Universal human rights when the need arise.

Therefore selling kidney is not only against humanity right's and  respects,but also disrespected man as end in himself

Thus against,Jeremy Benthams' principle of morals and legalisation, Kant revealed that humanity should not be limited to the fact that we are the master of ourselves,or our creator created  and gave us privileges  with gift of lives and freedom.but rather persons should be accorded with  the dignity and right  they deserve.
