Socrates paper

[Sethomas]

I'm determined to finish this fucker before I go to sleep, and right now I simply need to write a conclusion. I suck at those, though. The paper is about the Socratic dialogue with Euthyphro as the interlocutor. If you have any random thoughts on Socrates or Attic Greece that would fit in in such a paper, please contribute.

Please.

Include a section on the bake-off that Socrates had against his arch-rival, Testicles.

Hey...
I've always wanted to make an IQ test, one of the question asking "Which of the following is not a figure from Classical Greece: Pericles, Aristophanes, Testicles, Plato"

Boo you.

"socrates was stupid and he had a big stupid dooo doo head" should about rap it up.

[Zhukov]

Should Socrates have killed himself, thus proving his guilt to the world - or should he have escaped, proving that society was faulty or something?

What do YOU think?

"socrates was stupid and he had a big stupid dooo doo head" should about rap it up.

Yes. You should conclude with a rap.

You could always say "but this whole paper is meaningless b/c he never wrote anything and we can't prove he ever existed."

[The_Rorschach]

Well, I personally believe he existed.

I'll grant you Plato's dubious worth as a historian, aside from that however, the Sophist Debates illustrate a nuanced subtlety which Plato himself seems never to have demonstrated elsewhere in any of his works. Plato debated and pontificated in a straightforward, passionate and honest fashion, whereas Socrates -with the exception of his encounter with Phaedrus (which is more telling than many might think at first glance)- used the hastily uttered replies of his intellectual adversaries to defeat their own arguments by systemically illustrating inherent logical fallacies and sensical shortcomings.

Yes. You should conclude with a rap.
