Augustine of Hippo was born in 354 and died in 430 AD. Augustine was the bishop of Hippo for a long time. He became a very well known philosopher in ancient Western culture. He wrote many interesting works and taught in northern Africa. During this time Africa was controlled by Rome. He believed strongly in reason. There was a reason for everything. He also said that “time is nothing in reality but exists only in the human mind’s apprehension of reality.” He attempted to explain many things and use those explanations to figure out religion and God.
