dead or alive, for just one day, who would that person be?
For me, it would have to be my mother. She died four years ago. I'd give anything to spend one more day with her. :( |
|
Jesus Christ.
I hear you on your Mom, my Dad passed away this February. But I'll see him again. |
|
My Grandfather, who was killed in 1945, six years before I was born.

last night i hung out with Joe Strummer, of the Clash, perhaps one of the greatest political thinkers of the modern era, so he's out...
Thomas Jefferson, greatest political mind EVER... or now that you mention it, i really would give anything to see my father again, even for a moment, he passed on while i was 3500 miles away. |

Quoted: Jesus Christ. I hear you on your Mom, my Dad passed away this February. But I'll see him again. View Quote Amen, brother. We'll see our loved ones again. On a lighter note, I would like to hang out with Elvis. I want to see if his brain was really abducted by aliens or if he's working on a road crew in Memphis. |

I'd be between the following:
1. Thomas Jefferson- I admire his ideals, and I'd love to be able to explain to him what's currently going on with gun control laws and ask his opinion. 2. George Washington- Do I really need to explain this one? 3. Trent Reznor- I'm sure McUZI might disagree with me, but he's a musical genius. I consider him to be the best that's out there right now, and one of the best musicians of all time. 4. Ronald Reagan- Before his illness, of course. To meet the man who destroyed communism and who returned the US from the financial mess of the 1970's... Wow. 5. Niccolo Machiavelli- Like it or not, this man had the knowledge necessary to run the world. Mike |

Was Jesus Christ an actual person or was he a product of some religious person?

Quoted: Aristotle or Pamela Anderson - not sure which one. View Quote I'm thinking Pamela with a philospher's mind. :) |

Quoted: dead or alive, for just one day, who would that person be? View Quote Diane Feinstein. Preferably dead. [8P] It's pretty bad when someone can piss off a kicked back hippy like me. |

For me, it would be:
IMBROGLIO ! I'd love to shoot his 10/22 and .38 ! |
|
Shit I'd like to hang with the boss man himself, Mr Satan...
I saw him in SouthPark and MAN was he a riot! Then I saw him again in Little Nicky, and besides the trouble he was in, I did enjoy his shoving pineapples up Hitler's butt. I saw him in a few other films as well, along with his famous fight scene with Jesus. (Again in south park!) I figure if I can buddy up with the guy then I wont need to worry about going up or down!!! [=D] [=D] [=D] [=D] [=D] [=D] [=D] [=D] [=D] On a serious note, I probably would like to chill with JC, Buddha, Mohammed, etc... It'd be nice to get their thoughts on religion and all the bullshit with the church and so forth. (Ex. the crusades!!!) Somehow, I don't think any of these guys envisioned the political monster which is modern religion. Don't get me wrong, I think these guys all existed, I just don't think they were any more special than the rest of us. People with different perspectives on life who wanted to change the way people thought. (No offense meant to any religious people here. You think your way, I think mine!) |

as i understood the question, it meant a real, as in not made up, figment of imagination. person. so that leaves god, jesus, buddha, yahweh, etc. out. Guess Carlos Hathcock would have been extremely fun to hang with. Just think of the things he could teach you. Or maybe Charlie Manson. Not out of respect or anything like that, just to get a look into that crazy mind of his. Or maybe even Tim McVeigh, just to kick his ass around awhile. now that would be fun.

Quoted: as i understood the question, it meant a real, as in not made up, figment of imagination. person. so that leaves god, jesus, buddha, yahweh, etc. out. -jay View Quote Jay, To a certain extent you are correct. However, God and Jesus are not make believe people. God created this earth and sent his son to die so that you may have everlasting life. I don't understand why anyone would forsake him when he gave so much for you. I'm not pushing my beliefs off on anyone (just for the record) and for your sake, I hope you are right...however, I know in my heart this isn't correct. The alternative isn't very inviting if you ask me... especially when I know what he has done for me! |

Before this thread turns into a holy way, lets try not to insult each other too much (it will happen no matter what, even with my post saying that those people were 'normal')
Lets focus on the kick ass topic and move along... |

bwilder - i meant no offence to anyone or their beliefs. but just as you have yours, i have mine. i am truly sorry if i offended you or anyone else. that was not my intention, although i am sure it appeared that way. not to get into any religous debate, but i beleive when you die, you die. thats it, nothing else. IMHO, heaven and hell were made up in order to "scare" people into living a good life, because as human nature is, no one does anything for anyone else without some kind of reward, for the most part. Heaven was developed because of the need to beleive that dear old uncle mike or grandma is not really rotting in the ground like week old hamburger. instead, they are waiting for us in a better place. i beleived in all the god-related stuff for 28 years, up to about 1 year ago. for some reason, overnight i changed. sorry if i went on to far with this. we all have different beleifs. you like red and i like blue. we can still be friends though.

Winston Churchill and John Moses Browning, so I can shoot his M2.
|

Carlos Hathcock II, Gene Stoner, John M Browning
I've narrowed it down to three. [sniper] |

According to the Bible, I'll have all eternity in Heaven to spend with Christ. SO, I'll leave that to then. (and let's not start that discussion here)
Man, this is a TOUGH question. How 'bout a Top 8??? Patrick Henry Carlos Hathcock Bill Clinton (Honest, this freak really intrigues me) Ron Paul (the ONLY guy in D.C who "gets it." And I don't mean from interns) Dubya (they say he's a Christian. I'd like to see it fer meself) da Vinci (One smart dude) Patton Any D-Day soldier |

I think a day with Miss Magnum would be mutually satisfying.
|

Eleanor Roosevelt. Whoops! That's who Hitlery would hang out with. Me? Ummmmmm, maybe Sam Kinison. He was my favorite stand-up comedian, made me laugh my ass off.
|

I would also like to meet and hang out with Einstein. It would be great to get him drunk and figure out how in the heck did he come up with some of those equations? I figure if I was in an "altered state" i.e. drunk, I would understand the reasoning behind some of those equations.

Quoted: bwilder - i meant no offence to anyone or their beliefs. -jay View Quote None taken...it's all good I'm curious as to why you stopped believing? |

I think it would be a blast to hang out with Ted Neugent for a day.

Quoted: Was Jesus Christ an actual person or was he a product of some religious person? View Quote A fair and reasonable question you ask. The fact is that Jesus Christ was most definitely a "real" person. His life is recorded not only in the Bible but in the contemporary works of the Jewish historian Josephus, Roman writings including Pontius Pilate's report to his boss in Rome about how he had supressed a Jewish uprising by allowing the execution of a Jew named Jesus who claimed to be the King of the Jews. Even the Muslim Koran includes detailed descriptions of the physical life of Jesus. The fact that Jesus was a real person is not at all in doubt. Modern archeology has uncovered overwhelming evidence that the events and places recorded in the Biblical accounts along with other contemporary non- biblical documents did in fact occur. The only thing some dispute is Jesus claim of deity ("I and the Father are one" John 10:30 and "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father", John 14:9). The miracles of Jesus are well recorded and cannot be explained even by modern science. The events of Jesus' life fulfilled nearly a hundred very specific prophecies (ref:[url]http://www.capecod.net/~jgarvey/messanic.html[/url]. The last of these prophecies was written 700 years before Jesus was born. A secular mathematician calculated that the odds of having any one person fulfill all of the prophecies were billions to one against anyone other than Jesus. The last of these prophecies was written 700 years before Jesus was born. Significantly, in the Koran, even Mohammed states that Jesus "was without sin". On a more personal note, Christianity is the only religion that claims that it's God died for your benefit, rather than demanding continual sacrifice to an insatiable god. All other god-figures of world religions like Mohammed, Buddha, etc. are known to have lived and died and none made any claim to being resurrected from their death. So all in all, the evidence weighs heavily in favor of Jesus being who he said he was, and being on the mission he was sent to fulfill. Keep asking honest questions, have an open mind and be honest with yourself and you will discover that "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free", John 8:32. **I have included Biblical references here not to browbeat ANYONE, simply to make it easy for the honestly interested to look them up for themselves. |

Stephen Hawking.
He wrote a book titled, A Brief History Of Time. I don't know how many physics fans are here but I'm a physics student and this book puts the really abstract theoretical stuff into laymans terms. One of my professors used it as an aid in class. Hawking is the Einstein of his generation. There is some groundbreaking stuff happening in the realm of theoretical physics right now and he's right at the top of it! |

I am so jaded that I think I would be dissapointed by any of my heroes. So I have to vote with Goatboy, It would be interesting to see why Satan made the choices he did.

Adolph Hitler.
I would tell him not to invade Russia and slow down the war campain till he would have the A-bomb. The world would be cleaner and more educated. |

Sgt. Floyd Robinson, USA, reported MIA March, 1969. His was the name on the POW-MIA bracelet I got back in the mid-80's. The bracelet is somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico; he is still in my thoughts and prayers. Last I checked, he or his remains have not been found.
