Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Plato believed that moral evil stems from ignorance of the good, as he saw virtue and knowledge as interdependent. Therefore, the correct choice is C, ignorance of the good. Willful disobedience of God and desiring what is known to be bad can be seen as religious or ethical concepts, but not specifically as moral evils according to Plato. Unnaturalness is not a concept that Plato directly associates with moral evil.
