According to Socrates, must one heed popular opinion about moral matters? Does Socrates accept fairness of the laws under which he was tried and convicted? Would Socrates have been wrong to escape?
I. Thesis statement
In this paper I will express and elaborate on why one must either accept or disregard popular opinion and finally prove that Socrates is right in the act of the rejection of what one may think is right. In doing this what naysayers may deem Socrates view being different it may allow readers to assume the views and opinion of something of greater magnitude. I intend on explaining to you the reader these viewpoints and to do so I must first outline the strengths and weaknesses of using popular opinion before challenging the strengths and weaknesses of not using popular opinion. In doing so I will also establish the need to obey laws that have precedence on our everyday being and prove that Socrates may very well have accepted the fairness under which he was tried and convicted. Based on mankinds obligation to abide by the laws of the state and country in that he resides in I would uphold my reasoning of why it would have been wrong for Socrates to escape.
II. Discuss rights or laws and morals
a. How citizens benefit from laws
b. Discuss the emphasis of the effects of majority opinion
III. Discuss reasoning
a. Evaluate how a persons opinion is based upon education
b. Determine ones moral values through a matter of opinion
IV. Discuss strengths and weakness
a. Socrates position on the majority or popular opinion
b. Explain how Socrates came to this decision
V. Socrates stance/acceptance
a. Discuss doing whats right vs. doing whats wrong
b. Discuss his decision of abiding by the law
VI. Conclusion
I explain Socrates position based from the fact that certain aspects of a persons thinking under a majority ruling may outweigh a minority thought pattern then it is best to reason that the majority views will ultimately outweigh that of the minority which furthermore solidifies my position.
