Document Summary
It"s j apart of socrates to question and question everything, that later becomes a sort of tearing every theory apart that he"s confronted w/ Ppl claim an absolute certainty on topics that they firmly believe in, while socrates comes in and qs if they really do know. He himself admits that he has no wisdom and therefore that"s why he didn"t write anything. Philosophy is a way of living and not an argument based topic. Plato thinks that he knows what piety is. Being destructive w/ ppl unintentionally as a result of ignorance. Euthyphro"s ignorance may have blinded him, and assumed that bringing his father to court was the right thing; but even socrates didn"t know what the right thing was so he didn"t say much. We don"t know if what he did was the right thing. If you"re doing something that is wrong and know that it is wrong and keep doing it, that is ignorance.
