Kant’s is a deontological theory, though, contrary to your earlier belief that it’s non-rational or theistic.

Yeah, Kantianism’s got a whole set of self-imposed limitations., but I never suggested that the only options were non-rational or theistic, just that a purely rational system of ethics is quite a lot of work, and that, for most people, it’s easier to have them fear the invisible avenging Thunder-King in the sky.
