If you could change any historical eventFollow

Here's a question:



IF any of you happened to go back in time to kill a historic figure, do you actually think that it would prevent the event that they are tied to from happening? I think that another person would just take their place and acheive the same things.

I guess the whole American Revolution where a bunch of farmers with pitchforks handed you your *** has nothing to do with our freedom.

I'd stop the Big Bang. I think a lot of us regard that as a Bad Move. [/HHGTTG]

Looks like this American needs history aswell as Geography lessons. Nobby you might want to look at this

That shows why native AUSTRALIANS are aborigine's in the true sence of the word.

*edit the highlighted bit was for our less educated North American cousins who think that Africa is the home for the aboriginal population.

I'd go back and make sure that the first reality TV show's cast and crew suffered a mysterious case of being firebombed.

To do that you'd have to think of a way to stop them from being Greedy.

I am just trying to think of a way to become the Idol that the human race worships.

Actually I'm thinking we'd have to eliminate people's fear of the unknown. I think it took people a while to figure out they could gain wealth through this racket.

I'd invest 20k in Microsoft after they IPO'd.
#37 Jul 14 2005 at 6:43 PM Rating: Decent
Yeah, but then you'd somehow alter the timeline, and microsoft would fail, and the internet would never come to be, and we'd all just put our opinions on sheets of paper, stuff them in a box, and mail them to one another.

My OP got rated down? Did I really hurt someone's feelings with what I said? Awww...

Aside from the small detail that neither was on the Def Jam label (and therefore, not elible to be in the game), I wouldn't see a problem with this.


Yeah, I'm really not a fan of that kind of music, so, it's obvious in my lacking knowledge of who was signed to what. However, I've just always found the thought of Biggie Vs. Tupac as humorous considering what happened and how, when watching documentaries, people got really 'passionate' about describing it all. To me, it was stupid ghetto stuff, as well as a stupid misconception that got both of them killed.

Why would you even post then if it was obviously so meaningless for you to read?



- I'd go back in time and have Suddam's name changed to Steve, simply because I get a little kick out of the idea.

My mother always told me that one of my great-great grandfathers was part of the mob that lynch the mormon guy, Smith what his name. Saddly it was after he started his nutty religion.

I met some nice Mormon's, but always thought their church was flaky. I can't see the Washington D.C. Temple without saying "Surrender Dorthy" and then singing like a munckin.

I would go back and make Columbus's ships fall of the edge of the earth. Then sell some real estate to Iceland.

i would stop Adam and Eve from sinning, therefore preventing sin from entering the world, therefore no death, no war, no evil, no poverty, no sickness, ever!

That would be answered by weather or not I believe carbon dating to be accurate, and mans current understanding of the world around him, and methods of dating the earth are accurate, would it not?

Evil, from what I have read of your posts I think you are highly intelligent. However, the diffrence between you and I, is that I cannot put faith, in all science, or science over God/everything else.

its simply a matter of faith. you too, weather you admit it or not, have faith. Your faith, is in human science. And how many times over the past cetury have mans accepted beliefs and understandings based on cuurent science had to change, always. and, it will continue to change. I guarentee you that what the scientific world holds now as gospel, parden the phrase, will change in ten years. So, were you an idiot today for believeing in it?

I say i believe in God, you say prove it, i would say that the only proff I need is the fact that i am here.

So, let me ask you aquestion.

lets take a hypo situation. I ask you to prove to me that your great, great, great great grandfather existed. thier is no known picture, no one knows where he is burried. all that exists are written documents where people have atested to his existance.

How would you prove to me that he ever was?

Um.. he'd go look in the mirror. No great, great, great great grandfather and he wouldn't exist..

And for the record, I don't believe Evil is really a scientist.

Then we agree. I KNEW we'd make up. Now for that kiss... ;)
