Which famous historical person would you want to spend the day with?

[Reischfleger]

Plato.

 

[cabinfever]

Ghandi

 

[rareboy]

Eleanor of Aquitaine.

 

[TickTockMan]

How are you defining "famous" and "historical"?

 

[NotHardUp1]

The Christ.

 

[Alistair]

The Christ.

Which one?

 

[Alistair]

Henry the 8th. Think of how good of a meal you’d have

 

[NotHardUp1]

Which one?

The One recognized by the Holy Roman Catholic Church, Messianic Jews, all the Orthodox churches, and the vast majority of the Protestant denominations of the world. It is almost the totality of Christianity outside Mormonism, approximately 2.4 billion people.

That one.

 

[eddielee]

Abraham Lincoln.

 

[ChristianGianni]

Leonardo da Vinci

 

[Kahaih]

The One recognized by the Holy Roman Catholic Church, Messianic Jews, all the Orthodox churches, and the vast majority of the Protestant denominations of the world. It is almost the totality of Christianity outside Mormonism, approximately 2.4 billion people.

That one.

Which means that 5.6 billion people would reject your choice on the grounds of it being merely a fictional character.

 

[Kahaih]

I can't imagine wanting to spend that much time with anyone. I'll pass.

 

[HoodedRat]

Jesus Christ.

Or, if He were unavailable, I would settle for Doctor John Dee.

If you wish to see other religions as antithetical, but that goes against the primary tenet of Buddhism, which is synchronicity and acceptance of religions. It also contradicts Hinduism's panoply of gods, and directly contradicts Islam's acceptance of Jesus as a prophet.

But, that's really not germane. The point is to be rejecting of Christianity, and you have done that, so have appeared on your scoreboard.

My response to the OP's query was honest, simple, and unqualified. Yet, you and Alistair have chosen to make it into a stage to attack faith. Methinks anti-religion is every bit as evangelical and meddling as religion is accused of being on JUB.

Fancy that.

 

[Vannie]

Whoever invented stuffed cabbages.

 

[NotHardUp1]

Honestly no. I was questioning clarification. Pre-crucifixion, post crucifixion, current, Baptist Jesus and Catholic Jesus are definitely not the same thing.
