This 5 page report
discusses one of the earliest dialogues of Plato, the Euthyphro,
is devoted to the issue of piety and virtue and offers a great
deal of insight to his larger views regarding the ethics and
egoism of virtue and the definitions of piety. In his dialogue
with Euthyphro, Socrates asks “What is holiness (or piety)?”
Euthyphro answers: “the holy is this, what all gods love, and the
opposite, what all gods hate, is unholy.” Of course, such a
statement leads Socrates to then ask then if something is holy
because it is loved by the gods or do the gods love it because it
is holy and the reader, along with Euthyphro, receives a lesson
in multi-dimensional thinking. No additional sources.
