(You must discuss the Venn diagrams). Then consider how ONE of the following passages serves to support the conclusion of the Venn diagrams: 10a-11b (Euthyphro’s Dilemma) or 8c-9a (The Wrongdoer Passage).
Your analysis of Plato should not provide a summary of the various definitions that Euthyphro gives to define piety that Socrates invalidates.
