Ok. I've always had the belief that regardless of religion, if a female gives birth to a child she is the mother.

Do your thing man, have another drink on me.

I will just watch and wonder at your thought process.

Poland was a provocation, the germans that were isolated in newly created poland by the versailles treaty, were being massacred...
A.H. wanted to help them and negotiated endlessly with the poles, he offered many peace agreements that were rejected, he felt he had to act to protect the helpless.

Roughly, most influential or had the greatest direct impact on world history. I intentionally didn't include literary or scientific figures because that's opening a whole other can of worms.

Many of those were terrible human beings (starting with Alexander and going all the way to Mao), but their impact on human history is undeniable.
