GEN447 Kantian ethics derives, say, kindness to animals as a humane virtue, not as a corollary to the categorical imperative.  One can say that humaneness is part of what we cultivate in treating humanity in ourselves as an end and never merely a means.  But that argument is on a par with the celebrated proof that Adam wore a yarmulke, which rests on [this verse] announcing that God sent Adam out of the garden: “Do you think he’d send him out bareheaded!” JHRHV 164 n. 22
