The logic that makes you tick...

as LSAT studying given you a new interest in philosophy? No? I don’t blame you. LSAT passages can be boring as hell. Well, even if you do find them boring, thinking about philosophy can sometimes be a good way to warm up your brain cells. Because the people who write actual LSAT questions often have PhDs in philosophy, like my buddy Dr. Harris. And because human beings think and behave irrationally pretty often - except me. I've been perfectly rational 24/7 since learning the LSAT. Just kidding. Have you ever thought about what kind of reason is actually guiding you? What’s the logic of your morality?

Is it: -Kantian categorical imperative -Spinoza’s moral relativism -something that doesn't involve words people never use in everyday speech? No, it’s not easy to answer these kinds of questions. But what's MOST interesting about all this...is that people often have contradictions in their internal logic! (Sound familiar? That's what the LSAT's all about!) So, you can find out whether you do by trying out this "Philosophical Health Check." It helps reveal any contradictions in your reasoning. I just tricked one of my students into trying it, and she got a tension score of 7. (Not sharing mine, sorry.) If you get into this nerdy kinda thing (I'm guilty of it, sometimes), there is also the Morality Play, which analyzes your moral framework: Pretty cool stuff. So try it out and let me know what you discover! - Philosophizin' Steve P.S. Don’t worry too much if you got a high contradiction score - we’re just human after all! (And this isn't the LSAT.)

It gave me a quick reference, making things a lot less threatening and a lot more manageable.
