Question of the day: What were Epicurean philosophers?
Epicureanism is a system of philosophy based upon the teachings of Epicurus, founded around 307 BC. Epicurus was an atomic materialist, following in the steps of Democritus. His materialism led him to a general attack on superstition and divine intervention. Thus his followers would have been fundamentally opposed to Paul's teachings about God.
