Historical Figures

Of the 106 billion (estimated) people who have walked earth since the dawn of the human race, only 10 of them got entangled in history's textbook. Ok, there's a little more than 10, but they're still noteworthy enough for us to know by name. Rate dictators, monarchs, and "bullies," as well as pioneers, explorers, and free thinkers.

The best time to buy life insurance is BEFORE you die!!!
The best time to by medical insurance is BEFORE you get sick!
The best time to acquire an informed decision about the one and only Son of God is BEFORE you meet him!!!!

A CARICATURE is a cartoonish resemblence of a real person. You can detect and recognize the person; but it doesn't really portray the real image of that person!

Most of what passes for knowledge of this one unique man Jesus Christ are CARACITURES; mere impressions passed down by skeptics or the biblically illterate; not the true image protrayed in the divinely inspired Word of God.

My friend... if you haven't studied for Bible for yourself; you owe it to yourself to START today! Start in 1 John, or Mark, John. Pursue relentlelessly to determine it's veracity - it's life or death!

Painters and decorators can enhance the beauty of a building.....
News media can and reporters and increase it's popularity; But.....
with out a builder there is no building!!!!

Scientists, Psychiatrists, and philosphers can enhance our understanding of nature, our minds and our way of thinking; but without the maker there is no mind!!!

Jesus Christ is the maker of all things, without him we have nothing to talk about much less rate. Each one of has an appointment with him. Are you ready?

The greek for word used in scripture is monogenes. He is the one and only Son of the One and Only God. He had no earthly father; He is the only one who had a mother and who's Father was God. (Adam had no mother)

Consider this poem:
Jesus of Nazareth

Without money and arms, conquered more millions than Alexander, Caesar, Mahomet (Mohammed), and Napoleon. Without science and learning, He shed more light on things human and divine than all philosophers and schools combined. Without the eloquence of schools, He spoke words of life such as never were spoken before or since, and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of any orator or poet. Without writing a single line, He has set more pens in motion, and furnished themes for more sermons, orations, discussions, learned volumes, works of art and sweet songs of praise, than the whole army of great men of ancient and modern times.

Born in a manger, and crucified as a malefactor, He now controls the destinies of the civilized world, and rules a spiritual empire which embraces one-third of the inhabitants of the globe.



There never was in this world a life so unpretending, modest, and lowly in its outward form and condition, and yet producing such extraordinary effects upon all ages, nations, and classes of men. The annals of history produce no other example of such complete and astonishing success in spite of the absence of those material, social, literary, and artistic powers and influences which are indispensable to success for a mere man." Philip Schaff


I hope you will consider will these words and give weight to them before it's to late.

Vince.

Meh i agree with his Christian burning policy but not the having sex with his mother policy. He is more demonized by the Christians though.

Julius essentially founds the Roman Imperium, for both good and ill effects on human history. He was also one of the great military leaders, tactically, operationally, and strategically in history. He changed world history in a significant way which puts him in the upper echelons on this list.

He influenced people, yes, but his "Euclidian Geometry" has been classified as basically worthless by modern scientists, especially those on the forefront of scientific fields like physics and quantum mechanics.

Unfortunately suffers from the Caesar complex: he needed more time to establish his influence. Still great, he did influence many but could have done much more given time. He probably could have even accomplished more during his life if he wasn't distracted by Marilyn.

Somebody would have found it eventually. Besides that, who did he influence that would put him ahead of others on this list?

He wasn't in power long enough to have the influence that others on this list had. If given time he could have been more influential. That being said, he did lead the Roman armies to many victories and expanded the Roman boundaries dramatically.

I asked Grandpa Running Bear what it was like when he first came to this country and he looked at me like I was an idiot.

Three of my four grandparents were immigrants to Canada.  They were all alive until I was in my teens, or later, and I knew them well.  They all loved to reminisce about the "old country" although not all of their reminiscences were fond ones. In fact the three of them were as proud, or more so, to be Canadian as anyone I know who was born here.
