Kant: HOW IS METAPHYSICS IN GENERAL POSSIBLE?

"Without solving this problem reason never is justified." (section 40)
Here Kant is talking about how problems within the metaphysics will never be reasoned as true if they are not solved. This applies to everything in life. Nothing is proven true unless it is solved. To figure out that 2+2=4 one must solve the problem 2+2 to know that it equals 4.

although our reason and logic are the best tools we have to realize truths, they are never full-proof because we as humans are imperfect so our judgment can very well be incorrect.
