    Als Begründer der #Philosophie des Dialoges gilt #Sokrates - ein ehemaliger Soldat, der auch Frauen wie #Diotima als Lehrende rühmte, barfuss durch #Athen wanderte und im Gegensatz zu den #Sophisten kein Geld für seine Dialoge annahm.

    Erst nach seiner Hinrichtung begründete sein teilweise abtrünniger Schüler #Platon die Institution der philosophischen #Akademie.

    Bin hier als dialogischer Monist, Christ & Demokrat klar #TeamSokrates ! 🤓📚🙏☕️
