St. ISIDORE OF SEVILLE

Christian Saint

Also known as Isidorus Hispalensis

The Patron Saint of The Internet!

He was a benevolent Bishop, well-liked, well-read, and charitable to the point where there were permanent queues of poor folk outside his home.

A renowned scholar and nerd, he famously compiled his own encyclopedia using bits and pieces of ancient texts, thus preserving them for posterity.

Yes, he was categorizing the world’s knowledge fifteen hundred years before johnny-come-latelies Google and Wikipedia got into the act. For this reason he is now regarded as the Patron Saint of the Internet.

We don’t think you are allowed to call him St. Google.
