Hermias 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, a short parody on Greek philosophical themes.

Hermias is read about 5 times a day, in 13 languages.

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.

About this person

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 anecdotes than in their real writings.
