Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antony, also known as Saint Antony of Egypt, is known as the "Father of All Monks" and spent the majority of his life in the desert as a hermit. He is considered one of the most important figures in early Christian monasticism. Athanasius and Augustine were influential theologians and bishops, while Tertullian was an early Christian writer and apologist, but they did not spend significant time in the desert as Antony did.
