education of the boys in those days like learning music, science, philosophy and gymnastics. He also
studied the art of public speaking and argument. As a young man, he served the army and fought in
several battles with great courage. When he left the army, some of his friends wanted him to go to
politics, but he refused to do that for he felt he had another mission in life. His mission was to unmask
ignorance and encourage the truth up and down the street of Athens. In the market places, in the
houses of the rich and in the workshops of the poor, Socrates carried on his search for truth. His
method was to stop someone and to question him. By these questions, he would show others how
vague and incomplete their ideas were. Then he would help them to build up their ideas on surer
foundation.
