My question over this text is, could Socrates have taken the concept of learning as recollection a different direction and ended up with a different conclusion than reincarnation and the immortality of the soul? I think yes in some respects. Beginning at the concept of learning as recollection, you could chase the trail of intuition and recollection being equated to one another, and then intuition leading to the consistency of a moral compass. This essentially will lead you to the probability of there being an ultimate supreme something. This takes the argument of reincarnation and immortality of the soul in a little bit of a different direction, where you are pursuing a higher source to our knowledge and understanding, rather than the eternality of our souls.


I commented on Sierra's and Wendy's!
