Which philosophy study was Metrodorus of Cos partly addicted to?
Pythagoras Pythagoras of Samos ( ; ; Greek: Πυθαγόρας ὁ Σάμιος  "Pythagóras ho Sámios"  "Pythagoras the Samian" , or simply Πυθαγόρας ; Πυθαγόρης in Ionian Greek; 495 BC ) was an Ionian Greek philosopher, mathematician, and putative founder of the Pythagoreanism movement. He is often revered as a great mathematician and scientist and is best known for the Pythagorean theorem which bears his name.
Hermias (apologist) Hermias ( ; sometimes Hermias Philosophus or Hermias the Philosopher; Greek: Ἑρμείας ) was an obscure Christian Apologist, presumed to have lived in 3rd century. Nothing is known of him, except his name. He wrote a "Derision of gentile philosophers" ("Diasyrmos ton Exo Philosophon"), a short parody on Greek philosophy themes (the nature of the body, the soul, the world). From Paul's statement in the First Epistle to the Corinthians that "all worldly knowledge is foolishness to God" he affirms that all philosophical doctrines come from the apostasy of the angels and therefore wrong and laughable. Hermias relies rather on cynical and skeptical culture critique and on philosophical biographies and anedoctes than in their real writings if he had ever read them.
