Greatest Christian People

[pericles_plato]

Thought this might be a great talk.
Just as the title says what is some of the greatest christian people and tell why.

TO show that christians are even like by every one and all that good stuff.

Like General George Patton. Helped defeat the Nazis.

[Kiljan Arslan]

Umm Patton? didn't he believe in reincarnation?

[motiv-8]

Pope John Paul II.

His service in bringing about the fall of communism in Eastern Europe was worth as much as all his other myriad lifetime achievements.

[pericles_plato]

Strange thing was he actually was a christian. WEird that he beleived both. But yes he believed that and was a christian.

[Farnan]

Don't forget Cardinal Sin...

And millions of others.

[Erwin Rommel]

Don't forget Cardinal Sin...

And millions of others.

That venerable old man still has a sense of humor.

Oh if only he was alive today, he will welcome you to the Archbishop's Palace, saying

"Welcome to the House of Sin"

Yea, besides inventing the antitank nun he did have an awesome name.

[Barry Goldwater]

Pope John Paul II, Mother Teresa, and Jesus ().

The last emperor of Constantinople. 1453.

God rest his valiant soul.

(Was he Constantine XI or Constantine XII? )

Ah, but Christians are those who follow Jesus('s example).
How can he follow himself? Unless he's like Doc Manhattan and can replicate himself effortlessly.

Jesus was a Jew!

It's not difficult to find examples of 'great' Christians. Any of the Church Fathers or Church Doctors will suffice.

I'm very fond of this old bloke - Bob Maguire
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Bob

He's a 73-year-old Catholic priest from Melbourne who's been active all his life helping homeless and drug-addicted kids.

He also has done spots from time to time on Australian radio station JJJ which is targeted at the youth and alternative market - he has a great sense of humour.

He's an all round good guy who encapsulates everything that Christianity should be about - he never judges, but expresses how he feels the love of God through the deeds of his own life and how he treats others. I reckon he's an ambassador for everything that's good about the religion.

Oh he's fantastic. Brilliant guy, and very funny to boot.

hands down the greatest christian to ever live is Newton.

You mean Isaac Newton, the guy with the heretical views?

[gambit]

Ted Bundy turned Christian right before he was executed didnt he?

[Chaigidel]

hands down the greatest christian to ever live is Newton.

[The Good]

hands down the greatest christian to ever live is Newton.

Sir Isaac Newton... I agree, but not sure about the "greatest Christian ever to live." He was almost certainly the greatest Christian scientist however.

Then who is?
I think I came with the most predictable answer yet.

[pericles_plato]

Don't forget about great Emperor Constantine. Baptized on his death bed.

[lowbaccaus]

Also a cold blooded murder. But I'm assuming you don't mean "great" in the sense of morality right? More in the "amazing achievements" sort of way?
