Philosophy--- Immanuel Kant???????

Question:Having trouble answering this?? confused???

One day a clear and distince voice echoes through earth and says surprise you have all been living in a world that has been given space, time , and causality to make things easier for your mind. For the first time ever I will let you out into the real world, a world without space, time or causality or you can stay here. You have to choose now. What decision would each philosopher make (Kant) and why. Based on their theories would the be surprised?

What would Kant do based on the distinction between noumena and phenomenon and the categories of understaning of space, time, and causality???

Now with Kant... Well, time and space for Kant, as he said in his Critique of Pure Reason, are the forms of the sensible intuition, are the ways trough wich we percibe the universe, are inside us, are part of us, are the way that our mind arrenges the universe. But, there arises the question of the Ding in Sich, the noumeno, what is the reality when nobody is perecibing it? Well, Kant believes that′s the unknownable

He would say yes, I dont know how to deal thinking in a world like this, maybe we can′t because there is no space and time, and therefore cant be thought. But it arises religion, we can exist without thinking? For Kant, I belive yes. In Schopenhauer, by example, when you die you enter in that world, and you disolve in the Will. For Kant, you enter in the world of noumeno, when there is no time, no space, only...

Kant would ask if this is something that could be universalized. Would stepping out be something that everyone would do? Kant would decide to stay where he is at, because that is where everyone else is. To step out of time and space would not allow a person to be of any benefit to society.

WWKD?

One opinion: Kant would follow Plato, in desiring to follow the truth wherever it leads.

Kant would not chicken out, but would press on, for investigation's sake.

He would understand that his awareness would be moving beyond categories which condition consciousness. He would appreciate the opportunity to do "future metaphysics," which Noumena are precisely "empty" in terms of material, 5-sense data stream "conditioned categories" of spacetime and its correlated causality.

"For the first time ever I will let you out into the real world, a world without space, time or causality or you can stay here." This sounds like the "land of forms" of Plato. I don't think a world without space could exist.
