Epicurus

 Epicurus was an ancient Greek philosopher, He founded the school of philosophy known as Epicureanism.

Over time Epicurus gained a reputation for being a teacher of self-indulgence and excess delight. Christian polemicists criticized his work during the middle ages as he was deemed an athiest. Epicurus's principles for a happy life have been passed down through the ages as "Don't fear god; don't worry about death; what is good is easy to get; what is terrible is easy to endure."


He advocated the disbelief of all things intangible including any Gods.
