Why the fuck am I bothering to read the Timaeus? Is Plato's cosmology worth anything at all? This is Myth of Er tier.

Timaeus is a Socratic dialogue by Plato in which Timaeus describes the principles of cosmology. So far there have been some interesting points raised - for example an argument for the unique singularity of the universe, and an interesting account of space, being, and becoming - but it is held down by a bizarre speculative account of the ordering of the rotations of the planets and the creation of the universe.
