Assignment:

Socrates suggests that in being moral is to acquire the knowledge of what morality or holiness is, and this knowledge leads to being a good and happy person. Now, take Kant's views about the need for a pure moral philosophy... do you think that Kant's 'pure moral philosophy' leads us to the kind of freedom and independence Socrates is striving for? what do you think about this kind of independence- becoming self-reliant and independent when it comes to knowledge, truth, and morality itself? Support your answer (refence Kant's groundwork for the metaphysic of morals).
