3:28 - Question your questions 5:15 - Socrates vs The sophists 8:45 - Teaching method 13:35 - Soul 17:38 - Socrates last lesson Thanks for the video!! ❤️
One of the best videos on Socrates , an example of the life of a philosopher. Dubbed into English, and with character animation that owes more than a little to South Park, this episode makes the case for Socrates’ importance to philosophy as tantamount to Christ’s in Christianity. This has always been very curious to me that both characters have many similarities.
Around 17:00, we hear that Socrates thought that an important reason not to evil was that it hurt yourself to do so. This is very much like Ayn Rand's ethical egoism. She said that the reason not to steal, nor to make the first use of force against another peaceful person, was because it is not in your rational self interest to do so. Socrates and Rand are saying largely the same thing.
freesk8, I think you meant that Ayn Rand is widely influenced by Socrates. Like we could say that Nietzsche had chosen the side of the sophits (eloquently - which does not mean that it's "good"), so as to justify his pedophile tendencies and personal existentialism (via an archetype called "nihilism"), instead of correcting himself (instead of evolving). _Socrates and Rand are saying largely the same thing_ ? You just can't compare both that way in such sentence... Whatever, I agree with the thought.
Nietzsche did not hate Socrates! Nietzsche disagreed with Socrates and Plato, but he spent his entire career building a philosophy that was a reaction to Platonism. I would say that he had a lot of respect for Socrates, since he spent much of his career responding to Socrates. Not to mention the fact that Nietzsche called Socrates the wisest of all the talking heads of his time.
+streetsandlanes Ya I know. It's just that I need cc due to some hearing loss. But that's all right, there are plenty of philosophical works that I have still yet to read :D I do realize there were probably some tech difficulties etc that prevented them from using captions.
CJ L Oh! Hearing loss! That's certainly a good reason for wanting captions! I thought you were just someone too lazy to learn Greek! (I didn't progress far in any case!)

His philosophy doesnt require a soul. As a soul is a false interpretation of real human feelings/consciousness. You can subtract the soul and his idea that being virtuous is better for you still holds. "Has science proven Socrates wrong" - Yes, its proven him wrong on many things supernatural which he believed in, gods demigods, spirits. But it doesn't actually make his reasoning wrong.
wow, he is basically a Jesus equivalent, story to story. even cares about mankind. kind to make it seem like philosophy is a religion in itself. makes me think philosophy is a passive art ,then a cultural tradition really. why can't whats built for us just be more assertive
Socrates copped everything he knew from the Ancient Egyptians and he wasn't a teacher because he was a student of them. Everything that he knew came from outside of Athens that's why it caused such an uproar. Ancient Egyptians didn't write anything down either so he even got that from them too because the ideology was too much of a communal knowledge that was apart of their (Egyptian) culture. Jesus was black too as black as Socrates philosophy.
wow.... I think I lost some IQ with that, also so you can't teach if you've had to learn? just in that saying makes not worth listening to you, but your one of those BLACK PPL DID EVERYTHING! Jesus wasn't black he was arab but all you think of if he's not white he's black! bet you think cleopatra was black too...god but only white ppl can be racist right? just mentally your one of the worst type of people.
Im not sure he had respect for the law. He himself states that men dont know anything, and men make laws. He clearly had a different motive. To become a martyr? Maybe angry at the silent majority for letting him be killed, so dooming them to bad philosophy. ?Resulting in Socialism maybe?
Ryukey How do you arrive at that one? He was executed for corrupting the rich rulers youth, among other things he pissed the state off about, then refusing to stop.
+Resource777 Even if there was a person named Jesus at that time and place who was crucified that would not mean he was born of a virgin, but even if he was that would not make any of the miracles proven but even if it did that would not make his teachings moral but even if it did that would not make him the son of god or gods avatar or the person of god but even if it did that would not prove any of the previous. . . . . You have made a lot of assumptions based around faith. And that's fine, but that sir is the definition of mythology and yours is no more beloved to you than Vishnu is to Hindus or Zeus was to the Greeks. All the same I wish you the best, have a great day.
The creator of the entire universe, from the Milky Way galaxy down to the corns on my feet, impregnated a human teenage female with a son, sent on a suicide mission to save the souls of an entire planet so my ghost after I'm dead can listen to my grandfathers stories for all eternity about how tough it was for him to battle harsh winters to get to grade school...Who dare say this Truth is but myth?
+Jeff Thapar its a very apt comparison actually. they had much in common and they're impact was very similar in the development of western thought. The difference of course being that if we found out neither existed at all those who believe in the teachings of Socrates would be largely unaffected whereas those who follow Jesus would discover they had wasted their lives. An interesting thought to say the least.
jesus' story is so eddited in the next 2 thousand years that we dont even know if he was a real person. Socrates was a man like us, If there was a Jesus he would be a man like us too. Not a fucking god. You cant compaire jesus to anyone cause we dont know who jesus was and what he did, ALL of his life story is a lie.

What's the title of that final song being played?
***** gun n roses you could be mine
4:25 music please?
Guns N' Roses for sure but which I don't recall
It would be nice if it could be reposted with captions in the English language...
+H0plite99 We're lucky it's been dubbed! In fact, it'd be great if we all learnt Greek so we didn't need the dubbing!

I guess you were avoiding doing harm to your soul lol...
🙏🌹❤️
Guns n Roses at thr beginning... you could be mine....
Socrates seems to be a lot more useful than the Jesus character.
So Socrates's entire philosophy is based on the assumption of the existence of a soul?
Has science proven Socrates wrong?
His philosophy doesnt require a soul. As a soul is a false interpretation of real human feelings/consciousness. You can subtract the soul and his idea that being virtuous is better for you still holds.
"Has science proven Socrates wrong" - Yes, its proven him wrong on many things supernatural which he believed in, gods demigods, spirits. But it doesn't actually make his reasoning wrong.
***** You cant prove a negative. Science has proven god unnecessary and without evidence.

Ahahahaha.Are you ok?
Im not sure he had respect for the law. He himself states that men dont know anything, and men make laws. He clearly had a different motive. To become a martyr? Maybe angry at the silent majority for letting him be killed, so dooming them to bad philosophy. ?Resulting in Socialism maybe?
How do you jump to Socialism from that?
Hellsconsort Primary principal being obedience to rulers.
Ryukey How do you arrive at that one? He was executed for corrupting the rich rulers youth, among other things he pissed the state off about, then refusing to stop.
Christ is no Myth! Socrates died for truth. The thousands of Martyrs died and continue to die for Truth, whom is Jesus himself (Jn 14:6)
+Resource777 Even if there was a person named Jesus at that time and place who was crucified that would not mean he was born of a virgin, but even if he was that would not make any of the miracles proven but even if it did that would not make his teachings moral but even if it did that would not make him the son of god or gods avatar or the person of god but even if it did that would not prove any of the previous. . . . .

Nah. He died because he wasn't afraid of death, but instead wanted to know more about it. He loved the unknown.

sounds like the same logic suicide bombers use, f martyrs
Please don't compare Socrates with Jesus!

+Joe Cas Exactly! that's way Socrates was FAR greater than Jesus.
Please don't compare Jesus with Socrates!
jesus' story is so eddited in the next 2 thousand years that we dont even know if he was a real person. Socrates was a man like us, If there was a Jesus he would be a man like us too.
