Question 10
Incorrect
Incorrect
At one point in the trial, Meletus a²rms that Socrates is an atheist (a person
who does not believe in any gods). Why does Socrates press this point and
then develop an argument based on the issue?
Socrates admits that he is an atheist, and he challenges the people of Athens
to be open-minded enough to tolerate this conclusion. Further, Socrates goes
on to say that he does not promote atheism to the youth. It is only his personal
belief.
Socrates denies that he is an atheist, but he challenges the people of Athens
to be open-minded enough to tolerate people who are atheists.
Socrates denies that he is an atheist and proves his belief in the gods by
pointing out that he has sought to accept and understand the message from
Delphi.
Socrates is attempting to "turn the tables on" Apollos and to try to prove that
Apollos is really a closet atheist (who hides his true beliefs about the gods).
