The oracle at Delphi would beg to differ! ;) I take your point though, sort of… It’s maybe worth pointing out that we only know about Socrates from secondary sources: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_know_that_I_know_nothing https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_know_that_I_know_nothing You could maybe think of him as playing devil’s advocate, or employing ‘reductio ad absurdum’ methods (even moving towards a precursor to some sort of scientific method perhaps?) …or maybe as employing sometimes useful methods of liberating people from irrational superstitions/unexamined beliefs, which eventually helped in some way to lead us to more modern ways of thinking?
