1. The difference between the beliefs of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle By: caden Bankhead

2. Aristotle's beliefs His main beliefs were that : That metaphysical power and action achieve an outcome of complete development governed by four kinds of causes: the Formal - planning aspects:in mind, eg. design of building. the Material - physical aspects:in reality, eg. building made of. the Final - purpose aspects:in function, eg. end use of building. the Efficient - personnel aspects:in creators, eg.designers, builders, users of building.

3. Socrates The ideal life focuses on self-development, especially the pursuit of goodness, virtue, justice, integrity, and friendship. Materialism is the enemy of achieving the ideal life

4. Plato The ancient philosopher Plato was born in Athens, Greece. Plato's beliefs and writings contributed much to organized study of ethics. Plato believed that all people in some way desired happiness. A person's actions do not always create happiness but this is because people do not know what their actions will produce. Happiness is a result of a healthy soul but moral virtue makes up the health of the soul. People do not always seek to be virtuous but this is because they do not realize that moral virtue produces happiness. However, Plato set forth that if a person knows that moral virtue leads to happiness, he or she should act according to this knowledge. Being moral or ethical, then, has its basis in knowledge or reason. If a person knows that virtue leads to happiness but acts contrary to this idea, he or she is immoral, and immoral behavior is the sign of a diseased soul.

5. differences The differences are mainly on the issues of government and education.

6. Similarities both Plato and Socrates were republican. both were philosophers. I now much of Socrates but not about Plato. Socrates was a leader, he had followers and the Greeks blamed him for a war. it wasn't Socrates' fault but the needed to blame it on someone and he was against the war. he was found guilty with a penalty of death and had to drink hemlock.
