Now the question is; "Whether, admitting the existence of natural necessity in the world of phenomena, it is possible to consider an effect as at the same time an effect of nature and an effect of freedom--or, whether these two modes of causality are contradictory and incompatible?"

 There are only two modes of causality cogitable--the causality of nature or of freedom. The schema of cause and of the causality of a thing is the real which, when posited, is always followed by something else. The former is properly a consequence of the principle of causality--one of the analogies of experience. All change is therefore possible only through a continuous action of the causality, which, in so far as it is uniform, we call a momentum. In this case it must also begin to act, and its causality would therefore belong to time, and consequently to the sum total of phenomena, that is, to the world.
