In Socrates We Trust


Socrates represent the revolution in a time were everything was perfect, I think that is much easier to fight against a wrong society but Socrate´s society looked almost perfect and still he found problems. He was against of the sophist, they were people who get paid by thinking and teaching. In that era the fight between the public and the private education, this make us understand that ussually the big confrontation start very long time ago and that the big problems last forever. In his time he was very polemic because he had a lot of followers but the sophist hated him because he believed in public education. I like that he showed that it didn´t matter if he was only a student but he still had the chance to argument and to question what the teacher said, it shows that it doesn´t matter the position where you´re talking, what really matters is the things we´re saying. What I like too is that he shared his ideas only by talking, he didn´t wrote anything, sometime we think that the only way to spread wisdom is by writing books but to talk is a good way too that shouldn´t be underrated.
