"""Kant Generator for Python

Generates mock philosophy based on a context-free grammar

Usage: python kgp.py [options] [source]

Options:
  -g ..., --grammar=...   use specified grammar file or URL
  -h, --help              show this help
  -d                      show debugging information while parsing

Examples:
  kgp.py                  generates several paragraphs of Kantian philosophy
  kgp.py -g husserl.xml   generates several paragraphs of Husserl
  kpg.py "<xref id='paragraph'/>"  generates a paragraph of Kant
  kgp.py template.xml     reads from template.xml to decide what to generate

     As is shown in the writings of Hume, our a priori concepts, in
reference to ends, abstract from all content of knowledge; in the study
of space, the discipline of human reason, in accordance with the
principles of philosophy, is the clue to the discovery of the
Transcendental Deduction.  The transcendental aesthetic, in all
theoretical sciences, occupies part of the sphere of human reason
concerning the existence of our ideas in general; still, the
never-ending regress in the series of empirical conditions constitutes
the whole content for the transcendental unity of apperception.  What
we have alone been able to show is that, even as this relates to the
architectonic of human reason, the Ideal may not contradict itself, but
it is still possible that it may be in contradictions with the
employment of the pure employment of our hypothetical judgements, but
natural causes (and I assert that this is the case) prove the validity
of the discipline of pure reason.  As we have already seen, time (and
it is obvious that this is true) proves the validity of time, and the
architectonic of human reason, in the full sense of these terms,
abstracts from all content of knowledge.  I assert, in the case of the
discipline of practical reason, that the Antinomies are just as
necessary as natural causes, since knowledge of the phenomena is a
posteriori.
    The discipline of human reason, as I have elsewhere shown, is by
its very nature contradictory, but our ideas exclude the possibility of
the Antinomies.  We can deduce that, on the contrary, the pure
employment of philosophy, on the contrary, is by its very nature
contradictory, but our sense perceptions are a representation of, in
the case of space, metaphysics.  The thing in itself is a
representation of philosophy.  Applied logic is the clue to the
discovery of natural causes.  However, what we have alone been able to
show is that our ideas, in other words, should only be used as a canon
for the Ideal, because of our necessary ignorance of the conditions.
