Clement of Alexandria, one of the most revered deans of the Catechetical School for his philosophical theology and intellectual acumen, was one of the foremost figures who succeeded in uniting the missions of religion and science.
Clement used this side of philosophy to show that all human beings are rational and have within them the "spark of reason" or the "divine spark".[23] Secondly, Stoicism was used to show to pagan converts that Christian morals were actually quite similar to the ethics they had somewhat embraced in their Stoic beliefs.
For Clement, there is a close kinship between the human mind and the universal Logos, the Son of God.[30] No matter how distorted their beliefs were, there was a divine element dwelling in them which allowed them to attain even the faintest reflection of the eternal truth.
