  • The theory of the forms
    • Everything has to come from something
    • the forms encourage us to question in order for us to lean and not accept things at face value
    • You cannot actually prove that Plato's real world of the forms actually exists
    • the argument is no help in making sense of the world we live in
    • not everything can have an ideal form
    • we rely on our senses for everyday life
    • our senses are inferior as we've relied on them all our lives
  • the argument is no help in making sense of the world we live in
  • not everything can have an ideal form
  • we rely on our senses for everyday life
