- - - - naturalistic explanation explain by appealing to other natural phenomenon. do not go beyond nature.
        
        what is what actually exists is whatever is necessary for naturalistic explanation, but it is not necessary, we have no reason to believe that it is. it is not. the measure of what is and not a criterion is a function of the need of scientific naturalistic explanation.
      - miracle: natural phenomenon but the cause is not natural, but rather divine intervention into nature.
        
        prohibits that kind of explanation and as whatever is not necessary for naturalistic explanation
    - - excellence = virtue, virtuoso
      - sophists are wealthy, s is poor. claim to have knowledge of human excellence, and human excellence, knowledge of virtue.
        
        s is saying he knows that he is ignorant.
- - - - i am conscious that i am not at all wise. contradiction because he says that god never says what is false or makes a mistake.
- - - - socrates does injustice, is meddlesome by investigating the things under the earth and the heavenly things. making the weak words stronger,
      - i'm not a teacher, not a sophist. education is like training an animal. children are like animals, if they are going to grow up to excellent, they need the analog of an animal trainer.
- - - - socrates having experienced three types of reputed wise people and exposed them and making clear they have false beliefs about themselves.
        
        conclusion: im like all of these people, i don't know, but we are different because of this: i know that i don't know. self knowledge of his ignorance -> human knowledge.
        
        thus the riddle is solved. he is wise because he has knowledge of his ignorance. he has human wisdom, not divine wisdom.
- - - - s: im a village idiot, if the city is the great sophist, then everyone is the expert. but you know no one has the capacity to teach the way i do. if you're going to charge me with corruption, then you must charge the others unless there is a rare individual who isn't
        
        i'm not unique, i'm just one of the village idiots, we as a collective can't be the great sophist and also it be rare to have wisdom
        
        it is never justifiable to punish anyone, and therefore punishing me is unjustifiable
    - - that all human beings make them better while one is the corruptor or is it opposite to this, that one certain one is able to make them better, or very few, those skilled with horses while the many corrupt them. is this not so malledus? both concerning horses and all the other animals (including humans).
        
        it is in principle unjust to punish. is it everywhere, always, regarding every human being, to punish is unjustifiable, unjust, unpermissible. punishment abolitionism argument
        
        if punishment is just (justifiable, permissible) then there is a condition C that must be satisfied, but condition c can never be satisfied
        
        good people do good things, bad people do bad things. corruption is someone doing bad things to people. every human in their interactions with others wants to be benefited, and does not want to be harmed. all humans are motivated by self-interest. everyone wants what is good for themself, not contrary to won best interest.
        
        prudence: know what is in your own best interest, and know how to achieve it
        
        karma principle: do bad to others, it'll come back to bite you
        
        voluntarily: do it knowingly and deliberately.
        
        does anyone every voluntarily do bad to others? no, impossible. because everyone wants what's best for themself, everyone knows about karma, so no one would voluntarily bring karma. if i corrupt it's not possible i did it voluntarily. punishment must be for action that is voluntary. it is impossible to justify punishment
        
        for it is clear that if i learn i will at least stop doing what i do involuntarily, but you avoided associating and teaching me and you were not willing to but instead you brought me in there where the law is to bring in those in need of punishment, not learning.

- - - - if you think you know about death, you're ignorant and don't even know that you are. nobody knows about death.
        
        my daimonion is my divine wisdom , it never speaks to me unless i'm in danger.
      - death is either a dreamless sleep from which you never wake up, or the soul is immortal after released from the body, goes to hades, in hades i can meet up with the reputed souls. philosophize with impunity.
