Socrates was on crack

Well I just handed in my first philosophy paper and boy what a doosey. Not the paper the subject. We had to write on "plato's Apology". all ten pages of it. In 10pt font. yeah he was realy sorry.

Anyway the gist of the story is this.

Socrates was being a philisopher and telling people that they were not wise because only God is wise, but some people did not like that, so the brought him up on charges of corrupting the youth (Which he flatly denied); so in court he tells them not to interupt if he uses weird language (Cause he is old and can't learn new tricks). He tells them that the god Delphi (In real life it is just a computer language not a god) told him that he was the wisest man alive, so to prove this he goes to all these people and tells them they are not wise. but that was not very wise on Socrates part because he made lots of enamies and they took him to court, so he questions them in court and really bashes them good. He makes them defend him and look stupid. then they vote and he is found guilty. Hes says " 'sall good" and suggests that they make him do public service, or die. they go for the latter. then he dies.

Well yeah. So I wrote about something diffrent. I wrote that he was right in most ways(But not about Delphi), and that it was sad that he was so close to the truth, but so far from the Truth, the Way and the Light.

GTG Play practice.
