That there needs to be a healthy system of religious organizations, self-help groups and social services is the implication for society of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, the play ends with an observation equivalent to humans being born to sorrow as the fateful sparks fly downward from the gods. Society therefore has to have the resources to get humans through the bad times that hugely outnumber the good. It must be organized so that humans can find the emotional, mental and physical help that they need to stumble through an unfriendly universe.

What is Oedipus' tragic fate in 'Oedipus Rex'?

Murdering his father; marrying his mother; and losing his sight, his reputation, his job, his home and his family are Oedipus' tragic fate in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the Delphic oracle says that Oedipus will grow up to kill his own father and marry his own mother. Teiresias the blind prophet says that Oedipus will lose his sight and his home and by implication everything else. Both the oracle and the seer are reliable, wise information sources, and what they say is what tragically happens.
