A Review

Todays Notes
      Today was like a review. we went over everything about excellence we have gone over before. Then after we were caught up, we started talking about Socrates and what he did. He would teach people from about ages 15-20. He wouldn't force them to believe something, but he said to ponder over their beliefs. He said for them to question their religion, after he did this he was convicted of two major crimes. He was sentenced to as trial if he was found guilty he would die. He was found guilty and he pled guilty, still the vote was (279guilty- 221 innocent). The vote was from 500 citizens of Athens, citizens could only be male. When his friends were about to break him out he stayed in his cell to show that democracy worked and that the people have the power. The way he died was through a cup of poison.
