Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: For me it is Rodan who lived at the time of Jesus and was influenced by His teachings!. If you would like to read Him here is the link!. http://www!.urantia!.org/papers/paper160!.h!.!.!. PAPER 161 - FURTHER DISCUSSIONS WITH RODAN http://www!.urantia!.org/papers/paper161!.h!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Of our era, I would say Charles Atlas!. Of eras past, I would say Lao Tzu, and after him, Kong Fu Tze (Confucius)!. Of all time!? Probably whoever is destined to be the Messiah according to Judaism (no, not Jesus; he just plaigarized Lao Tzu and Confucius no surprise though, he was after all Jewish, so the entire new testament is a "Jew moment")!. If his philosophy will end war, poverty, disease, etc, I'm sorry but, you can't do much to beat that!. Therefore I believe the greatest philosopher is probably not even born yet!. peace out!. P!.S!. Lately in pop culture, people that are generally stereotyped have come up with new slang called "the moment!." That is, an instance in their life, where they behave in accordance to stereotypes atributed to their group!. Example; gorgeous blonde hollywood actress (can not possibly be more general!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.) goes to bed with a total "loser!." How would she respond to criticism!? "oh sorry; I was having a blonde moment!." For example, that whole "Benicio" elevator thing, was Scarlet Johansson's "blonde moment!." The idea of the dumb blonde, started with Marylin Monroe; as much as the movies, as in real life by all accounts the woman was pretty idiotic!. Thing is, she wasn't even a blonde, she was a red head!. MM is the person who deserves the dubious distinction, of starting that stereotype!. So if blonde women should be angry at anybody, it should be her, who wasn't even a real blonde!. Sorry for being so long winded; guess I was having a "Jew moment!." peace!.Www@QuestionHome@Com King Wen, who organized and provided for the first commentaries on the I Ching, a book whose influence on China is very great, predating and influencing the great philosopers of the country, including Lao Tsu and Confucius!.
