However, when he comes back into the cave, his group members laugh at his stories and don't believe what he says, because they have never experienced something outside the cave. The man now wishes he can go back to the outside world, instead of being in the cave. This can directly be compared to the Brahmin and the house keeper in Voltaire's "Good Brahmin". The Brahmin is a very well educated man, who is very learned, consequently, he is miserable because he is unable to answer life's toughest questions. The house keeper, is uneducated and does not think about any of this, so she is content and happy with her life, because she is ignorant to the important questions , the Brahmin asked. The final parts of "Allegory of the Cave Readings" and "Good Brahmin" is what brings up Socrates' "Apology". The jurors and prosecutors in Socrates' trial, talks about how he is corrupting the youth
