I would like to take a little break and invite you on a more serious thread for a change. So let's talk about some real heroes like

Plato
Aristoteles
Socrates

Did they shape your life and the way you look at the world today?

What comes to mind when you hear those names?

Please share your thoughts!

Imagine they have an accident and they fall. She's not gonna have any left! Or maybe a lopsided booty if she falls on one cheek and skids down the road.

Wow! What an Ass! What would happen is, her ass would be so Red from scraping the concrete that it'll match the outfit she has on. Then she'll have a Big Red Ass! It'll hurt when you smack it.

I think to some extent they have shaped our lives all in some way consciously or sub-consciously. This is if we are to believe that the good life is the examined life. That the essences of goodness, beauty and justice can be understood only through a philisophical journey. In this sense they are heroes in my opinion.

Also, of cause comes the question of philosophy when I here those names of course and in this sense they truly are heroes. Historically speaking, Socrates and Plato are easy to seperate. Plato being considered the founder of philiosophical study and discourse as still practised today.

Socrates however, I find a much more interesting and heroic character. He was sort of like what we might describe as a God or Deity. An influential sage who had no official employment or position like Christ, but whose wisdom attracted important followers and has grown in recognition since his death. He was heroic in some sense because he allowed himself to be put to death by the corrupted state, because his reasoned argument compelled him to remain even though his friends had arranged for him to escape. Thus he prized philosophy above life itself.

Christians believe that Jesus died to redeem humanity from sin; in this sense it would be fair to argue that Socrates died to save philiosophy so that we today could learn from it. Not only as a taught discipline in schools, colleges and universities but in everyday life.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit...By human virtue or excellence we mean not that of the body, but that of the mind, and by happiness we mean an activity of the mind - Aristotle

Really very interesting, my fellow orgers. I'm stunned by the colorful variety of views and opinions you all share on this. So please continue to post your thoughts
