It’s kinda strange you read into my comment I’m pushing Ancient Greek ideas which include slavery and pedophilia. >No need to appeal to the ancients. Appeal to facts instead. I’m going to let you in on a secret, it’s a fact that the world has been influenced by Socrates and Pluto for 2,500 years and the world is going to continue to reference and qoute them for the foreseeable future for all sorts of reasons...the least of which will be to push slavery and pedophilia. if you’d like to take up the good fight to stamp out any references to Socrates and Plato by calling it an appeal to authority and pushing slavery and pedofilia, good luck. >forcing people to commit suicide via hemlock ( as what happened to socrates himself ). This is actually much more interesting. Socrates was indeed sentenced to death, but as was the way his friends/students broke in the take Socrates out of the city (like a quasi prison escape/excommunication) but he refused and had a debate as to why he would not escape and but see the sentence through. I’d share some of the dialogue but I know how you feel about quoting ancient works.
