Jesus definitely never said "Call no man father...." because he didn't speak English. English is a mongrel language. It has absorbed many other languages. That is why the same word can mean something entirely different according to how it is being used. Another thing words take on new meanings. Bing Crosby sung a song where he said he felt "happy and gay." The word "gay" didn't have the same meaning. Also we have many words for the same thing. So the English translators shows to use the word "Father." A lot of people with their literal interpretations don't realize in the long run they are not reading the original text. But you can't argue with them. They are too thick headed. I know once I was talking and I said something about John the Baptiser. A woman who is Baptist got very upset. That wasn't right! I explained the words mean the same and it is just a matter of which word the translator chose. Some Catholic Bibles have Baptist and some have Baptiser. Someone came up the word used in Aramaic. She wanted to do know which was it Baptist or Baptiser. The answer she got - the definition is one who baptises.

Aristotle was a Greek philosopher. As a young man he studied in Plato's Academy in Athens. After Plato's death he left Athens to conduct philosophical and biological research in Asia Minor and Lesbos, and he was then invited by King Philip II of Macedon to tutor his young son, Alexander the Great. Soon after Alexander succeeded his father, consolidated the conquest of the Greek city-states, and launched the invasion of the Persian Empire. Aristotle returned as a resident alien to Athens, and was close friend of Antipater the Macedonian viceroy. At this time (335-323 BC) he wrote or at least completed some of his major treatises, including the Politics.

The answer would be Niccolo Machiavelli, if you are refering to modern political science as we know it.
