St. SEVERINUS BOETHUS
Christian Saint
Also known as Anicius Manlius Severinus Boëthius, Boetius
Roman philosopher, statesman and martyr
It was philosophy that got him into trouble. His work ‘The Consolation of Philosophy’ posed such tricky questions as: how can evil prevail if God is so good?
His theory on the subject was tested by torturing him to death. We hope being a Saint is some small consolation.
