Socrates: Freedom, Excellence & Self-Transcedence

The discussion in this forum will be based on the Socratic ideas found in Plato’s dialogue the Crito. What is most important, to live or to live well? Are we harmed by our own misconduct? Should we be concerned with what other people think of us? Should we always follow the laws of the state? These and other questions are raised in the Crito. All these questions are fundamental to knowing how to live and die well. Suggested donation: $2 per person.
