Perhaps, instead of filling our children with Platonic fibs, we should provide them with the ability to comprehend their civic inheritance through the same resources that informed the propounding pops, whether that be Aristotle, Cicero and Polybius or Sidney, Milton and Grotius and learning Latin, Greek AND English? Of course, one answer of the many that might be offered is that such curriculum would not avail the student of the skills necessary to land a job with ConocoPhillips. Plato would of course suggest there is no sense trying to teach potatoes to be philosophers. Your response?
