  1. Likely a modern form of Plato's dualism, or maybe a form of monist idealism.


  2. Ice cream with chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla.

  3. a school of thought derived from aristotle, plato and plotinus that basically led to paganism.

  4. Neoplatonism is a modern term used to designate the period of Platonic philosophy. Neoplatonism is a thought form rooted in the philosophy of Plato (c. 428-347 B.C.E.), but extending beyond or transforming it in many respects. Neoplatonism developed as a school of thought in the Roman Empire from the third to the fifth century of the common era (C.E.). However, the term itself was coined only recently in the mid-ninteenth century, when German scholars used it to distinguish the ideas of later Greek and Roman Platonists from those of Plato himself. Plotinus (c. 204-270 C.E.) is considered the first main proponent of Neoplatonism, and his intent was to use Plato's thought as an intellectual basis for a rational and humane life.


  5. Wiki's answer:

    Neoplatonism (also Neo-Platonism) is the modern term for a school of religious and mystical philosophy that took shape in the 3rd century AD, founded by Plotinus and based on the teachings of Plato and earlier Platonists.

  6. Is that a new form of platonic relationship. Sounds disgusting and wouldn't have it! LOL!
