A good one, but Gutenberg changed the game. Only priests and few nobles could read at the time. The printing press changed it all. There would have been no Reformation without him.
If you're going with Christianity or Islam, they owe their existence to Akhenaten, the Egyptian inventor of monotheism.
Da Vinci's personal hero was Archimedes. He invented the lever, the auger and calculus. His technology allowed humans to advance civilization more than anyone who had come before him.
Or Jack Tripper. Dude had three hot roommates. Aww yee.

How many times has Paul been said?
Cause he is the right answer. Jesus was the foundation, but Paul built the Church and Religion that follows him. Nothing has made quite the impact on overall human history, in my educated opinion, than Christianity. Positive impact and negative impact are still impact. I will gladly admit that the Church has had many dark days.

Jesus, Adam or Noah.
Probably Noah since erbody came from him. (which is true for Adam too so I'm not sure which one to go with).

Christianity wasn't the first religion, and some other a-hole would have taken his place.

Show me concrete proof that the Jews control the world. Meanwhile the Romans created the base of structure our powerful government and military we use today. Also the letters that we are writing with.

On second thought, I'm definately going with Noah.
Cause if he didn't do the ark, there would be no more human history.

If it wouldn't have been for Eve, he wouldn't have needed a damn ark in the first place.

Ignoring my own opinions on this statement which arise from the faith based part of me.
From an academic perspective this statement is incredibly naive. You would ignore the impact of the single greatest movement in human history. In what comes across as a personal vendetta against the faith itself. Your personal feelings regarding something does not change the factual impact, or truth, of an entity.

You say this is fact--prove it. Define greatest.
There are as many, if not more, Muslims in the world today as there are Christians -- and they really believe in their movement, so much so that many die for it.

How would humankind be different if Jesus never existed? We'd be very similar to how we are today.
Now, how would we be different if electricity wasn't discovered and put to use?

Fact. I've admitted Jesus was an opinion but that the only viable alternative would be another religious figure.

The fact that the mere suggestion of Jesus makes you so mad proves the point. Were you banned? I haven't seen your dumbass in a while. Welcome back.
