Bruce & Brandon Lee.. Obviously id let even ask them both to visit their families if only some sort of secret arrangement to catch up and all that mushy stuff. Then Id ask Bruce to teach me his martial way as payment and ask nothing more of him.

We'll I'd be stuck with either English, Dutch or German speaking guys. So that narrows down the list by roughly 60 % Think that F.D Roosevelt would be a nice option, Churchill as well. I wonder how much change those guys could bring to the world in one day. Perhaps Ghandi too, but I feel guilty about letting him see what happened with Pakistan and India. Scientist would also be interresting, so Tesla would make the list, but perhaps Richard Feynmann would make a more contemporary alternative. Than again I think Tesla left with more stuff unsaid, so Tesla would be preferable.
So what was the Fourth crusade? And while the Arrabs did invade the Mediterenean, you'd be hard pressed to call them a clear and present danger for the European lords. The only Christain power they significatnly threatened was the Byzantium Empire, and the crusaders most definetly didn't come to their aid. Try the Moors held significant power in the Iberian peninsula. But they didn't pose a threat against the European powers either, as they could be easily isolated South of the Pyrenees. So no it wasn't a defencive war. At best it was an pre-emtive strike at an potential enemy.Kliever said:
he was a xenophobe not a racist. and something tells me he would be to busy feeling whatever emotion someone like him would feel for knowing his work still lives on and feeling dread from the advances in technologyZachary Amaranth said:I'm not sure arming Him would do any good. There's a reason the Bible doesn't end with the Apostles busting in, tossing Jesus a sword, and kicking Roman ass before they ride into the sunset with Mary Magdalene.Harleykin said:bring "back" jesus
arm him
send him to all those ppl claiming doing his work. sounds fun to me...but that might be a diffrent problem
I have a feeling he'd be too preoccupied with all the brown people in the US to care.the December King said:
I'd bring Douglas Adams back, put him on an express flight to Wexford, Ireland, and give him a copy of "And Another Thing..." for in-flight entertainment.
Presuming Mr. Adams doesn't have any difficulty finding the place, I believe that would rid the world of its Eoin Colfer problem. If Adams doesn't beat the frigging hack to death, he'll still scare him badly enough to ensure we don't wind up with that kind of travesty on our bookshelves again.

That doesn't particularly change anything. Who do you think the xenophobes are bitching about? Canadians?lionsprey said:
yes basically, a xenophobe doesn't like anything that's not what they are used to. it's kind of a more extreme version of racism that discriminates against nationality instead of color. i am by no means defending him i simply consider racism to be inadequate to describe himZachary Amaranth said:
High school teacher and some college teachers at me will yell at me for saying this, but wikipedia is one excellent source for most subjects. In any case they're a good source of sources, so read a wikipedia article regarding the crusade you wish to know about, and check which sources they refer to in the bits that interest you. But if you're interrested in world history, than I'd recommend Crash course world history, a great youtube series on the whole of human history.Kliever said:
You however wrote crusades plural, so that's all crusades the fourth included. Which was the main cause of the destruction of the Byzantium empire (it was directed against the Byzantium empire a very Christian Empire).
This makes any claim of the crusade to be defencive wars to be untrue. Yes they attempted to retake lands from the Arabs and Turks. But who would get those lands, and to whom did those lands belong in the first place? The answer of the first would be whoever could take and hold them, the answer of the second would be the Byzantium Empire (Of course they belonged to other people at first, but the Byzantiums were the last Christians). But the crusaders of the fourth crusade willfully sacked constantinopal and destroyed the Byzantium Empire, ruining any claim of previous crusades to be defencive. They could be called preemtive, to strike against the Muslims before they could strike against Europe.
Yeah, except he didn't rail against Canadians to my knowledge. He was, however, outspoken against varying degrees of brown and even went so far as to vilify them in his work. I'm yet to read the polemic or prose from Lovecraft that said the sajme about Brits or Germans.lionsprey said:
At that point, claiming he was "xenophobic" doesn't change anything.
I'd bring back my Grandfather so he can call me a useless pill one more time. He asked for me on his death bed and I never went to see him, so that is probably one of my biggest regrets. I didn't actually think the old bastard would die, so I kind of want to know what he wanted, maybe he would have said something nice, or something like..."I've always hated you, you know that"? I'll never know.
Plus I'd like to have a conversation with him now that I have also turned into a cold hearted *****, we would be on level fields. I don't think I'd want him around for a day though, just a few hours and then I would be satisfied.

Rough. Living with those regrets is one hell of a hard time.Rose and Thorn said:
