Who would you bring back from history?

What do you think? The title says it all.

Jeshua. I've got many questions for him.

You mispelt my name, it's 'o' not 'e'. And I'm right here, ask away.

As for who I'd bring back from history, I'd probably go with wise men from every major culture and time period, so I can learn a lot more about their history. If we're limited to one, um, Archimedes or Da Vinci.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Nah, unless you hang out with poor people, dead people, lepers, and had some strange ordeal involving a crucifix, I don't think it's you I need.

Yehoshua or Yeshua. If you're going to localise it, at least go all the way.

Isaac Asimov. I want more Asimovian fiction.

If we combine forces with Asimov and Verne, why, the world is ours.

Methinks anybody out of the past might be totally out of place in the present and wouldn't fit the picture we have of him or her.

You're probably right, which is why my choice would also be Jesus; at least then we could have him perform some miracles and verify/falsify this whole Christianity business. The only problem is, if we bring him back right now he might be blown to smithereens the instant he's resurrected due to a misguided rocket

Dude, I live in Western Sydney. Poor people, dead people and lepers abound. Only ordeal I've had a crucifix was having an ex's jab me in the eye at a very innopportune moment though.

Hegel and Kant. There are some points i cannot understand.

Charlie Chaplin, Gary Gygax, Moses & Jesus if they existed, and Theodore Roosevelt for my own personal reasons.

If they existed. Dude, Jesus was most definitely an historical personage. Although Charlie Chaplin was most certainly fake. Look at him, obviously some sort of puppet.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

And he looks like Hitler. Seriously, has anyone ever seen the two of them at a party together?

I've often thought the same thing. After all, you can't tell from the voice, Charlie was a silent film star.

Lucrezia Borgia.

Gary Gygax

Theodore Roosevelt for my own personal reasons.

If your "personal reasons" for bringing someone back from the dead are the same as mine, you're a screwy dude.

Hang on, we can bring people back for our own selfish sexual pleasure? Totally bringing back Lawrence of Arabia. Wait a second...
