Socrates established the fact that one cannot depend upon those in "authority" to have sound knowledge and insight. He demonstrated that persons may have power and high position and yet be deeply confused and irrational. Socrates maintained that for an individual to have a good life or to have one that is worth living, he must be a critical questioner and possess an interrogative soul. He established the importance of asking deep questions that probe profoundly into thinking before we accept ideas as worthy of belief.

Tens of thousands of people gathered outside the Georgian parliament on Wednesday in the second day of protests in capital city Tbilisi over a draft โ€œforeign agentsโ€ bill that critics fear could drive a wedge between the Caucasian nation and Europe.

Protesters could be seen waving the flag of the European Union โ€“ which Georgia applied to join last year โ€“ and those of the United States and Ukraine, as well as the Georgian flag. Social media videos also showed some protesters throwing stones at the buildingโ€™s windows and attempting to break a protective barrier, with police deploying water cannon and tear gas.

The controversial bill would require organizations receiving 20 percent or more of their annual income from abroad to register as โ€œforeign agentsโ€ or face heavy fines โ€“ a proposal that rights experts warn will pose a chilling effect to civil society in the country and damage its democracy.
