I kinda wanted to say Jesus, too.

Me too, to see how he really was dispite many different claims.

It's a moot point - he at least was dead at one point according to the dogma.

The thing is I wanna meet him in the form he was in when he was doing his "thing" not the spiritual form.

He might be alive in spirit but you can hardly ask him the sorts of questions you want to that way... of course, that might just be him... in any state... I seem to recall that he didn't answer Pilate's or Herod's questions either when he was alive.

PS: I'm not trying to bait religious debate here - so sorry if it offends. It just seemed relevant to the point.

Yes,in hindsight I think I would like to go back in time if it was possible and meet Jesus in the days of Herod and Pilate.
It's also occured to me I could ask Pilate if he was really born in Scotland,
which is something historians debate :)

I don't know if I'd really want to meet Henry VIII--- i mean, with me being a woman i don't know if I'd leave that meeting with my mind ( or should i say Head) intact.

Definitely Jesus. Definitely Jesus.

There are others, but I doubt if they would like to meet me, so that would make me feel pretty crappy knowing that I was a fan of theirs, but they could care less about me. :(

Of couse Jesus and Hitler.

And Jack the Ripper, just to know who it was.

And ANYBODY who could give me a true answer to what happened to the lost colony at Roanake Virgina.

On a more selfish note, Jim Henson, Fred Rodgers and Clayton Moore. To thank them.

And George Reeves to yell at him.

And no "Monkeys Paw" kinda thimg either . . .
