Simple question: Who do you think is the most influential person in the last millennium ? Why? If the thread survives long enough, I will post a person you guys may be surprised to know why I believe he is the most influential person in history. EDIT: Obviously there is no definite answer, though some influential people clearly fit in the title of the most influential person in history over others. Please avoid flaming, you can supply factual information to validate your choice. Also, the reason why I changed it to the most influential person in the last millennium is to avoid bringing controversial figures such as Jesus and Muhammad. Since one of our Basilers have already revealed the person of what I believe to the be most influential in the last millennium, I would like to share with everyone Johannes Gutenberg. Look it up and share your thoughts!

You mean a positive influence or a negative influence?

Jesus or Prophet Mohammad(sp?) I'm leaning more toward Muhammad(or is that how you spell it)

I'd say John Lennon, because he's more popular than Jesus.
