Plato’s Allegory of the Cave A Summary

In Plato's Republic book 7, Socrates gives his famous allegory of the cave. In this video I try and summarize the allegory of the cave and highlight some important aspects for consideration.

Hi! I'm Brazilian and I'm interested in philosophy. I always found the cave myth difficult to understand, and your video was very enlightening.

Hi, this is not regarding The Cave, but it is about Eythphro by Plato. I don't understand how the dilemma can lead to one believing that an all-powerful being, God, cannot be omnipotent. Also, what does Eyhtphro's dilemma mean to those who are not theists? I can't imagine it means anything to them since there is no personal belief in a being. Thank you so much!
