i loved my independent study in philosophy! i spent a semester studying moral status. basically, how all things should be treated according to their nature/attributes. i decided that i beleive that all living things deserve a certain level of moral status. my professor srgued that only living things with sentience deserved any kind of moral status. my final paper was on the moral status of all primates excluding fully cognizant human beings (who of course HAVE the highest moral status without argument). i argued that chimps/gorillas/etc should have the same moral status as mentally handicapped human beings. that is, full moral status upheld on their behalf. anyway, i can't wait to get back into class and take some more philosophy classes. BPD or not, i am fully capable of logical thought! :)
