Yes, he was. I was a sad day, when a man like him was put to death for his understanding of the world around us. But Socrates is a fun guy to study, even though most of what we have comes from Plato. But i loved his Quote, "an unexamied life is not worth living" and he is right. But unfortunatly he was killed for this thought as well.
