How big do your balls have to be to name your philosophy 'transcendental'?

Just make sure you talk about the virtuous properties of nature, throw in some trees and mild physical exercise here and there and you’re good

Transcendental actually has a very specific technical meaning in Kant’s philosophy, and it doesn’t have that grandiose connotation that OP seems to suggest, but actually a very humble one. Words in philosophy have different meaning from common usage.

kant was extremely smart and based though, and his philosophy was very important. since transcendental also actually describes a concept in his philosophy accurately, there is nothing wrong with him using the word. It like when rand calls her philosophy "objectivism" except rand was dumb, unbased and had small-minded useless philosophy.
