revised blog 4"Allegory of the cave"
In Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave,” Socrates is describing the life of prisoners who was forced to look up straight can not move and their head to see whats around them. Living in the cave all they could see was the shadow projected on the wall in front of them. Socrates then explained how they didn't believe him when he told them what goes on outside the cave. The prisoners where blinded and did not know what goes on in the world once they discovered the truth they where finding it difficult to believe and they find it had to believe the sun and everything on earth really exist. due to their ignorance they refuse to accept the truth.
