Greek Philosophy embodies the philosophical concepts developed by the Greeks. Greek philosophy formed the basis of all later philosophical speculation in the Western world. Many of the moral ideas of pagan Greek philosophers have been incorporated into Christian moral doctrine. The political ideas set forth by Greek thinkers influenced political leaders as different as members of the U.S Constitution.
