Scopes Trial

The Voyage According to Plato the famous philosopher Socrates once said "The greatest good of a man is daily to converse about virtue, and all that concerning which you hear me examining myself and others, and that the life which is unexamined is not worth living" (Plato, Apology).

Plato’s Apology is the retelling of Socrates’ trial and his ultimate death. In the Apology, Socrates argues and defends himself against the false charges of: corrupting the minds of the young and not believing in the gods recognized by the state. Socrates was judged by Meletus, Anitus, and Lycon; Meletus of which he discussed with the most. How these charges came about, were merely prejudices and assumptions by the people of Athens that accumulated over the years. It all started when…

foundation in law enforcement and the judicial system. It is necessary for physical and circumstantial evidence to ensure the most accurate outcome of a trial. In some cases, the evidence is not as exact or direct. It appeared to me in the readings the authors were trying to show were all evidence must be exact or not be included in the trial. If this is the case, we would not need a court system. In the readings it appeared to me the authors were trying to say the evidence should meet a…

Socrates, a Greek philosopher, from the city of Athens has been accused of corrupting the youth and of godlessness. Whereas a result of Socrates is incarcerated where he awaits for his execution. In the “Crito” Socrates is visited in jail by his good friend Crito. Crito believes that Socrates has been wronged by the city of Athens; he urges Socrates to escape. However, Socrates does not agree with Crito and does not wish to escape. Socrates puts forth the argument if he does escape then he will…

I am arguing that Socrates’ argument is sufficient to establish the truth of his conclusion that he has contributed to the city in Plato’s Apology. In the Apology, Socrates is being put on trial for his “crimes” against the city. He is already convicted of corrupting the youth and disbelieving in the gods and is awaiting his sentencing. Socrates wants to be given free meals for what he has not done for the city. He believes that what he has done is not worthy of death, but that he should be…

Throughout, philosophy has been challenged by various intellectuals and philosophers who argued about life, specifically on the origin of the universe. They each had their own ideas and personal beliefs and stuck with it even if their counterparts were against them. Each had their own perspective of cognizance but all got to the same question. What are is the origin of the universe? Where does everything come from? Why is what is? They all try to answer these questions and it formulates still…

I don’t think Socrates deserved to die and had I had a vote I would’ve voted for acquittal. The reason to this is as far as I can see his trial and conviction occurred because he was a person who spoke out against the majority. His opinions on life and values were similar to those of some members of Athens, but overall they were direct oppositions to the governments standings. Unfortunately, because some of the like-minded students of Socrates adapted his teachings to fit their plans the…
