What is Morally right.
Socrates has a profound understanding of self -deception as one of the most dangerous forms of dishonesty - in this context I define dishonesty as fraudulent behavior where an individual cheats himself and those whom he is interacting with , this absence of truth, where certain or all facts are voided is catastrophic for the well being of the individual as a single entity but also for the society at large where he wants to flourish . For man to proceed with this vice is detrimental to self since this habit can lead to action that are not compatible with the natural laws of society. He will fail to discover his self as well as live in denial of the rules that guides a society. Examination of conscious is as important as living a life devoid of ridicule since at the end of it all nature with level the playing ground and for the traits and vices will project themself. This dishonesty figure that an individual shield himself with becomes an internal enemy fed by the self - deception. Therefore, in Socratic philosophy the person who lies to himself creates a fundamental split within his own soul - on level the human conscious which causes doubt - and its a internal leveler between right and wrong, and the fake facade/ mask which is self conceited notion that what you want to say is the truth devoid of facts.
