A battle of influence, Alexander the Great vs Jesus Christ

jesus easily

I can see there being some secular figure who is more influential than Jesus. But I don't think Alexander the Great is that person.

Looking it up, it seems like there are about 2 billion Christians in the world. So whoever you chose would have had to influenced more than 2 billion people (plus the various others that are affected by those 2 billion Christians).

Also, while Alexander's role in promoting Hellenistic culture was influential (and you could say it influenced more than 2 billion people), it could well have happened without him. Whereas Christianity is unlikely to have occurred without Christ.

I go with Christ. Christianity not only spread its own religion, but was also key in spreading Hellenistic culture in its own right, and has had more effect on the shape of geo-political divisions than Alexander over the long term. Even in terms of pure killing, certainly more have died through the machinations of Chirstianity than through Alexander's wars.

Jesus easily takes this. I don't see the Church of Alexander the Great and its hundreds of subdivisions all over the place. I don't see people arguing and killing each other over their interpretation of Alexander the Great's words. I understand he had a powerful influence on human history, but really? I don't think anyone can say they've had more of an influence over the world than Jesus.

The whole civilizations as we know it, is the way it is thanks to Alexander the Great.

Also, Jesus say love your enemies, and Alexander said kill your enemies, since there is still wars, Alexander wins.

People kills people for the fact people haves to kill people, is called human nature, other people takes things the other people wants, so they have to kill them.

Since day 1, when the first person saw the second person, the world share just one dream, to kill the other person.

Jesus, definitely. Society even uses his name as a curse word. When was the last time you heard someone stub their toe and yell "ALEXANDER THE GREAT!!!"?

This thread sucks.

Alexander the Great unknowingly paved the way for Christianity. Also, if he had not been assassinated when he was, Rome would've been eventually conquered by him, and the world would be an indescribably different place today.

This, Alexander the Great was undefeated in battle, He was planning on conquering Rome before it became a world power.

That has nothing to do with the topic at hand though

Jesus Stomps. He's the real God, any other is a phoney and a fake.

@Jayfournines: If he conquered Rome, Alex pretty much would run the world.

@XImpossibruX: There is some funny bits here. The Ice Giants one is pretty funny.

Though I do believe that Jesus had more of a social Impact but Alex had more of a Govermental impact

Before this develops into a flame war I am abandoning the thread. I suggest you all to do the same and let this thread die.

Proof Alexander can raise from the dead, created the world, brought the dead back to life, made blind people see, deaf people hear....etc?

@Jayfournines: Your point, I wasn't even talking to you

I died during my massive heart attack and when Jesus sent my soul back to earth inside my human body, he showed me.

Now prove he cant.

Alex would bow before Jesus and beg Jesus not to cased him down to hell. Jesus could do it just for fun.
