Questions of correct knowledge is a recurring idea. One of the themes running through the dialogs is the matter of truth. Some of the philosophers have suggested what in modern language is known as pre-scientific or scientific explanations of how the physical world works. The reason that this creates an issue is because of how such matters might be tested but also how such realities influence and impact religious views. In fact, this is one of the charges made by Meletus against Socrates at Athens.
