Billy M.'s list seems like a good one. Let me add in:# St. Paul--without him, the Christian religion would probably still be a splinter sect of Judaism.# Charles Darwin# Adolf Hitler (You didn't say GOOD, just influential.)# Karl Marx# Abraham Lincoln, whose election catalyzed the Civil War, and finally abolished slavery in the United States.# Rupert Murdoch, without whom Bush would never be president.# George W. Bush# Osama Bin Laden: did more damage to the USA with boxcutters than the Soviet Union could ever have done with nukes.# Bill Gates: For bringing computing to the masses. Buggy, inferior computing, but computing nonetheless.# Tim Berners-Lee: for thinking up the World-Wide Web, the biggest advance in communication since the telephone.# Gutenberg, for the other biggest advance.# Tom Paine, for writing Common Sense.# Adam Smith, who, much like Jesus, is invoked the loudest by those who haven't really read him.--[[categoryUser:essayGulik5|Gulik5]]14:26, 12 April 2008 (EDT)   <br> I've tried not to mention people that have already been said:<br>1.
