Super Important Post

What did Sophocles think about the laws of man, and the laws of God? Which did he think was more important? What does Sophocles have to say about 'Man' (in general, and specifically?) Did Sophocles hate women? And more importantly, HOW DO WE KNOW THIS? (since we can't ask him personally!)

If these questions sound familiar, the only person who would be surprised is me, since I am marking your SAC essays and you haven't actually answered these questions in your response.

Hows about you have a shot at it now, and then when I see you later in the week (I'll do my darndest) we can discuss what to do about it.

Something to think on

I borrowed these thought-provoking questions from this website for you to think about.

How about you give me some thought-provoking answers........


Is there always room for compromise in your life?

On what issues would you never compromise your feelings or thoughts?

Do you think this is an attractive or challenging part of your personality?

Does it make you more likeable?

Do close friends know what your driving principles are?

Or do you keep them well hidden from view?
