Plato was unique, not a typical Greek. It is a big mistake to generalize from the example of Plato to the average Greek, who would have considered Plato an eccentric or even mad nut job.

It's really just called the Philosopher's Stone. It was only ever called the Sorcerer's Stone in the American versions of the first Harry Potter book because they felt that no American kids would know what the Philosopher's Stone was. That being said, the Philosopher's Stone is pretty cool. It's said to be able to turn lead into gold but what most people don't understand is that this is also supposed to affect a change in the soul of the alchemist. Like the dull lead turning into bright gold, the human soul is uplifted when it unites with the divine. That is the true power of the Philosopher's Stone

I disagree. Aristotle was bad for science. Because of his belief that the sun revolves around the earth, many great scientists who disagreed were put on trial and ultimately executed. The church taught the teachings of Aristotle, the church was more powerful than the king so for centuries science was at a stand still. Thanks to Galileos heroism, we have the scientific method. I hate Aristotle and i hate how much credit he gets for being so arrogant.

Socrates worshipped the Greek Gods. He described an encounter he had with local Nymphs, one of the dialogues begins with him attending a festival in honor of the Goddess Bendis, he heeded the command of Apollo to begin the work of becoming a philosopher, and his last words were a request for a friend of his to sacrifice a rooster to Asklepios on his behalf. In fact, Plato even says that Socrates taught that the goal of philosophy was so you can purify your soul to spend time with the Gods for all eternity rather than being stuck in the cycle of reincarnation

@@viorelpiscanu9425Here's the quote from the Phaedo: "Then he uncovered his face, for he had covered himself up, and said-this was the last thing he uttered-“Crito, I owe the sacrifice of a rooster to Asklepios; will you pay that debt and not neglect to do so?” He's clearly asking that someone do a sacrifice on his behalf. Nothing to do with stealing a chicken. It was common to promise the Gods that you would give Them an offering later in exchange for an answered prayer. Clearly Socrates felt that a prayer of his addressed to Asklepios had been answered and he wanted his friend Crito to do the honors on his behalf since he would now be unable to do so. Socrates worshipped the Gods. End of story.

Socratics are important as a school. But in an another way when you consider individual philosophers Aristotle seems important. Aristotle is important not as a school but as a individual of a school.

Everyone you attempt to comiserate with has no idea what you are talking about leading to loneliness as your ideas are so far ahead that it might be generations before they are even understood never mind accepted and normalised. Frustrating but ultimately character building, I don't begrudge him for his criticisms of democracy whether I agree with him or not.
