Who is the most important person ever?

[Joshuar]

Who is the most influential/famous/relevant/overall most important person in history in your own opinion? It's widely known that Jesus Christ is the most famous according to statistics, searches, believers, etc, but in your own opinion, who do you think the most famous/influential/important person is?

Albert Einstein

He showed us that everything in the universe is made of three things.  Mass and energy (which are the same) and empty space.

Everything we have is because of that man.

The most important person to us is ourselves.

In what context is this definition of importance to be taken in i.e. collective importance or individual importance? If the answer is collective importance then is it a select group that benefits or the whole? Is this a misleading question that plays on peoples guilts for actually believing that they are in fact the most important person?

Now that the "knowledge" that they are the most important person is loaded into short-term memory they cast a vote and it tells a lie about who they "believe" the most important religious figure is.

Now you've got a whole group of Bitcoin forum users who lie about religious figures and think they're the most important people ever.

The list seems pretty arbitrary and heavily skewed towards religion.

Relgious figure heads are winning...

[Bitcoin Is A Great Idea]

I don't see Chuck Norris in the list - I can't vote for him

What a shocking development...

I voted for Albert Einstein because Jesus Christ is important only for Christians I guess, everyone has Its own gods

[Hazir]

Even if you are not religious person there is no doubt of Jesus influence on whole world was the greatest of all people. You can't deny it.

[bryant.coleman]

Voted for Albert Einstein. Prophet Mohammed and Jesus Christ are only important for people from specific religions. But Einstein was the one who made everyone's life better.

[RodeoX]

If Christianity is weighted so heavily here then Constantine should be included. If not for him you would likely know as much about Jesus as Mithra or Zoroaster. Remember the Bible of western civilization is a government produced document.

yeah myself am religious,  but Jesus teachings are in a different level then the other figures,  Im kinda happy to see that people know that Jesus is significant to us.

Who is Julius Caesar?
I think Mao zedong is the most important.

Julius Caesar was arguably the greatest of the dictators of Rome, ruling from 49 BCE to 44 BCE. During his brief reign, Rome was transformed from a Republic into an Empire, and he set the path that Rome was to follow until its decline and eventual collapse.
