  • love it

  • this is cool. i just learned about the cave in class. nice animation

  • @Radeon500 Cool man, Animating with these things is more than difficult it can be infuriating.

  • Ignorance is a choice, we only entertain ideas that are gratifying and stimulating in reference to who we are and who we want to be in the eyes of ourselves and others. Any 'truth' that defies that purpose is discarted. Unbiased objectivity is an illusion.

  • @IMBUED

    At least, it explains how the world can go on thinking theres nothing else, cause the magority of them beleive only what they see and what is excepted by his peers. Also shows how the magority idea can be blind and wrong.

    it's still present in most Religons, it's just .... Well, interpreted wrongly :)

    Though plato wasn't talking about his cave idea literaly, people in the cave are the masses, and one who leaves the cave and comes back and is killed is an enlightening person. Which is rejected by the world he was once apart of.

  • its a pity the mystery schools dissapeared... now we may never find out the truth of our existence

  • "I think therefore I am" was René Descartes :). But that doesn't really contradict Plato (even though he did in a sense, but his cogito does not :)). Descartes was on the contrary trying to figure out the truth with his mind, without using his senses (everything empirical) and rejecting everything if it hadn't been proven with his mind (radical and hyperbolic doubt).
