It's true that Kant was instrumental in the philosophy that there can
be an objective morality, and I've always read/thought that Kant was
antitheistic.

I've been reading Ravi Zacharias' _Can Man Live Without God_, and *he*
cites evidence that, in spite of Kant's works, he remained a strong
Christian throughout his life.  I'll try to remember to look up the
relevant quotes and their sources.  I admit this surprised me greatly.
