Socrates constantly challenges the experts' knowledge and shows them that they do not know as much as they think they know. Socrates' point is to recognize that we don't know everything and face it. By facing it, we can grow. Socrates shows us that the first step to knowledge is to ask the right questions. Sometimes people that ask questions are perceived as unintelligent and annoying. Socrates shows that there are no weaknesses in questioning the norm and many traditional people will stand in the way but most of the time change is good look at the abolishment of slavery.
