What kind of person is Euthyphro?
Euthyphro was known to be one of Plato's dialogues (between Socrates and Euthyphro). Euthyphro was aparently a noted religious expert in the Classical Age of Greece. He and Socrates discussed the issue of piety - and what constituted piety - in this particular dialogue.
In the dialog Euthyphro what is Socrates is asking?
In the dialog "Euthyphro," Socrates is questioning Euthyphro about the nature of piety and impiety. He wants Euthyphro to define what piety is and to provide a clear explanation of the difference between pious and impious actions. Socrates is ultimately searching for a universal definition of piety that is not based on personal opinions or beliefs.

The Euthyphro dilemma. "Are morally good acts willed by God because they are morally good, or are they morally good because they are willed by God?"
Explain the connections between Plato and Saint Augustine?
1. They both use examples as their first "definition" In Euthyphro Socrates asks "What is Piety?" and Euthyphro responds with "It is doing as I am doing now; that is to say prosecuting anyone who is guilty of murder, sacrilege, or of any similar crime..." In On Free Choice of the Will by Augustine, the question What is Evil? is asked and the first "definitions" are examples of Adultery, and Killing for war. 2. They both follow the form of Euthyphro's Dilemma. In Euthyphro the dilemma is "Is something pious because god loves it, or does god love it because it is pious?" In On Free Choice of the Will the Dilemma is "Is something evil because it is against the law, or is it against the law because it is evil?"
