(Plato 214)

Forum 2: Plato - Holiness and Deities’ Approval My initial view on Plato’s argument that what is holy and what is approved by the gods are not the same‚ is that this argument is convincing. I will also‚ show that Euthyphro would not have given any reasonable response to the argument in response to the second question and final part of the assignment‚ which requires if we can think of any arguments Euthyphro could have made and what his response would have been.
