Understood lionhearted, consider the fluff nixed forthwith.
I have always been more drawn to virtue theory. I have of late been drawn to Wittgenstein's archly enigmatic, "aesthetics and ethics are one". I don't know if Wittgenstein ever said anything about disease. One philosopher I hugely admire is Peter Singer and he's a utilitarian of some stripe so that gives me pause for thought in dismissing consequentialism/utilitarianism but like I said I have been drawn more to virtue theory side of things.
