Hitler

[BBfan46]

Yes they can.

[BBfan46]

Hitler

Hitler is infamous.

[Niamh.]

Jesus?

[BBfan46]

Jesus?

I knew someone would say this :)

Technically there's never been any concrete evidence that Jesus ever existed so he can't really be the answer.

I don't think anyone has ever disputed the fact that he existed, it's more if he was who he said he was and did what we're told he did

[MeMyselfAndI]

probably Beyonce or Lady Gaga

[BBfan46]

Well I thought that, until today's R.E. lesson :P

[Josy]

Elvis?

Barrack Obama?

[Niamh.]

Well I thought that, until today's R.E. lesson :P

[BBfan46]

probably Beyonce or Lady Gaga

Tell me you're not serious.

[bettiepage]

I don't think it's easy to narrow any one person down to being the most famous but Michael Jackson must be up there..

[Beastie]

Sir Paul McCartney.

[BB_Eye]

Jade Goody

[BBfan46]

Surprised no one's said Ghandi or MLK

[Lee.]

David Beckham? I spoke to people once in Mauritius who had never heard of the UK (in fact they hadn't heard of very much) but they absolutely idolidsed David Beckham?! DOn't really know how as they didn't have a telly or read newspapers etc.. :conf:

[MTVN]

Apparently there is more evidence that Jesus existed than Julius Caeser :shocked:

Hitler's probably a pretty good shout but if infamy doesn't count then probably someone like Nelson Mandela.

Be careful, or you'll upset the Muslims who recognise the existence of Jesus as the prophet before Mohammed! Furthermore, there are plenty of references to Jesus both in Jewish and Roman scriptures. Whether he was actually the son of God is another matter, but Jesus the man who purported to be the Messiah and was crucified for that belief, did in fact exist.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Tell me you're not serious.

well people like Hitler not everyone knows such as people 15-
but almost everyone knows Beyonce and Lady Gaga tbh.

well everyone else is saying like old names.

[Beastie]

Adam and Eve.

Than surely with no concrete proof the Jesus you may claim is the most famous man to ever live is just a 'character'. I'm not trying to offend theists by the way.

[BBfan46]

I think people under the age of 5 don't know who Hitler is not 15.

I still can't believe that this is a boy.

[MeMyselfAndI]

stacey never knew who hitler was and shes 15. so quite alot of 15- don't..

[Stacey.]

I think people under the age of 5 don't know who Hitler is not 15.

I didn't know who Hitler was and I was 14 actually. Not everyone knows about things like that.. also Jesus isn't real. I'm not sure though D:

[CaraRawr]

stacey never knew who hitler was and shes 15. so quite alot of 15- don't..

are you ****ing kidding me.

[Harry!]

Madonna x

[MeMyselfAndI]

i only knew when i was like 11 and thats because of a random history lesson
stacey could of been ill a day when they did that topic

[Lucy.]

Saddam Hussein or Osama Bin Laden

Jesus is a really iffy one really. I'm not totally convinced he existed. Lots of contradictions and misinformation.

[Stacey.]

are you ****ing kidding me.

I love the way you've supposedly left then come back to quote something where I'm involved.

I do remember doing about him, just couldn't have been listening or something.

[CaraRawr]

I just find it pretty ridiculous that an average 14/15 year old who goes to school and that didn't know who Hitler was.

[CaraRawr]

FYI, I did say I would post still just not as much.

[Stacey.]

Oh. Well your signature says "goodbye" LOL.

[MTVN]

Hitler is the most infamous man ever to walk the face of a planet. I can understand if people dont know who the current Prime Minister is, or the Pope, but to not know who Hitler is?? :shocked: I just cant see how someone could be ignorant of his existance considering the huge effect he has had on the world.

[bettiepage]

omgz. she's obviously online acting cara :')

it's quite easy, we can do it too!!!


omfz, i duno who hitler is x

[CaraRawr]

Oh. Well your signature says "goodbye" LOL.

Fair enough aha.

[Angus]

Than surely with no concrete proof the Jesus you may claim is the most famous man to ever live is just a 'character'. I'm not trying to offend theists by the way.

I'm not a theist, but I know that Jesus lived as definitely as I know that Queen Victoria, Ghandi, Hannibal, Julius Caesar, King Harold and William of Orange lived: from historical records - or else you may as well say that all history is but a myth.

By the way, I'm not one of the people who have claimed that Jesus is the most famous person that ever lived, merely that a man called Jesus DID exist insofar as we have historical written evidence from sources that, in fact, probably had more reason to try and conceal his existence than promote it.

[Lucy.]

Stacey stop being a poob everyone knows who Hitler is.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Stacey stop being a poob everyone knows who Hitler is.

Lucy whats a poob? :/

[Jordan.]

stacey never knew who hitler was and shes 15. so quite alot of 15- don't..

Stacey also admitted she doesnt know how to make a sandwich...just saying. :hugesmile:

[Lucy.]

A nicer way of calling stacey an absoloute ****ing ejit.

[Stacey.]

Stacey stop being a poob everyone knows who Hitler is.

What the hell is a poob?

[MeMyselfAndI]

oh LOL

[Lucy.]

What the hell is a poob?

And I didn't know who he was. Why do people just assume that everyone should know things like that?! It's annoying.

Omg. Because of the impact he had and how many lives he destroyed it's something you should know :rolleyes:

[MeMyselfAndI]

but were not from Germany so it didnt really affect stacey tbf

[Stacey.]

Omg. Because of the impact he had and how many lives he destroyed it's something you should know :rolleyes:

Well I don't remember learning about that ever. Just because I might not you know the things you do, doesn't mean I'm faking it.

[Lucy.]

but were not from Germany so it didnt really affect stacey tbf

Are you ****ting me? Because your not from Germany it's fine to not be interested because it didn't affect Stacey? :nono: Wash your mouth out

[InOne]

but were not from Germany so it didnt really affect stacey tbf

If you are the youth of today then we are really in trouble.

[bettiepage]

omgz. i duno who gaga or beyonce is? x

[MeMyselfAndI]

im not saying what hitler did wasn't wrong

im just saying that it did not affect staceys life.. nor did it affect mine so not everyone our age would know about it.

[InOne]

im not saying what hitler did wasn't wrong

im just saying that it did not affect staceys life.. nor did it affect mine so not everyone our age would know about it.

Well it did affect your life actually. We were in the war yanno...

[MTVN]

but were not from Germany so it didnt really affect stacey tbf

Omfg you're so *****ing ignorant its unreal. He killed 6 million Jews and 5 million others in mass genocide and was responsible for the deadliest war of all time ffs.

Britain came incredibly close to falling to Hitler and the Nazis , the whole world did ffs. Every year WWII is commemorated, every year the Holocaust is remembered, every year the Battle of Britain is remembered. To not know who Hitler is is to be ignorant of the whole *****ing world.

[Lucy.]

I'm 18. Do you really think I was knocking around in the War?
Just because it didn't affect your life doesn't mean you would be ignorant to it, Oh forget it be an imbocile :bored:

[MeMyselfAndI]

[bettiepage]

[Stacey.]

Go and be popular.

[Lucy.]

Go and be popular.

Wtf are you on about

[MeMyselfAndI]

i know what he did i did it in year 7... i dont need a history essay

[MTVN]

LOL at you just getting angry at someone on a forum.

Sorry, but it did annoy me. Relatives of mine died in the war, relatives lived through it. To say that Hitler only affected Germans who were alive at the time is quite offensive imo.

Didn't mean to go off on one but its just something I feel quite strongly about.

[MeMyselfAndI]

i never said it only affected germans :rolleyes:
i said it obviously didnt affect stacey and it didnt affect me.

There's no need to be angry just because people don't know things that you think they should. D:

[MTVN]

i never said it only affected germans :rolleyes:
i said it obviously didnt affect stacey and it didnt affect me.

Ah, I dont want to argue, but you did say she wouldnt know because she isnt German.

It affected the whole world, and the effect of Hitlers actions asre still stamped firmly in our lives today.

[MeMyselfAndI]

i said that because germany probably get taught about hitler more than we do

[MTVN]

There's no need to be angry just because people don't know things that you think they should. D:

It wasnt so much the not-knowing Hitler that annoyed me, that surprised me but it didnt anger me.

It was the "were not from Germany so it didnt really affect stacey " that kinda sent me off on one because of the huge effect Hitler had on the world. I would never normally get that annoyed, it's just been a long day :blush:

[MTVN]

i said that because germany probably get taught about hitler more than we do

Nah, they dont actually. They're pretty ashamed of Hitler and dont do anyway near as much teaching as we do, they actually think it's pretty strange the obsession this country and its education system has with him.

[Angus]

There's no need to be angry just because people don't know things that you think they should. D:

If my 15 year old son had come home and told me he had never heard of Hitler, I would have hauled him straight out of the useless school he was attending.

I find it hard to believe you have never watched a war film or a documentary featuring Hitler and the Nazis. You would have to be blind, deaf and dumb not to have heard of Hitler at some point from a very early age.

[BB_Eye]

Socrates, Emperor Constantine, St. Augustine, Martin Luther (not ML King) and Napoleon probably had a far greater effect on the world, but far fewer people know who they are.

Well if Hitler had won WW2 you would have known about it alright, as you'd be living in a dictatorship today - that is unless you were Jewish, Ethnic, Gay or Disabled, in which case you would have been exterminated at birth no doubt.

I do remember doing something about him, not sure what though.

Probably just never learnt it or wasn't listening, maybe I was away then, I've no idea.

It's not a useless school either..

[Lee.]

There's something gravely wrong with our education system if a 14/15 year old does not know who Hitler is! Not having a go at you Stacey,just whoever is teaching your generation :)

[BBfan46]

http://i34.tinypic.com/219c2gi.jpg

:love:



and If you don't know who Hitler is I suggest you start attending school and maybe casting your horizons beyond your own life.

[BBfan46]

I'm 15, and I've known who Hitler is for as long as I remember.

[MTVN]

Socrates, Emperor Constantine, St. Augustine, Martin Luther (not ML King) and Napoleon probably had a far greater effect on the world, but far fewer people know who they are.

I think I know of all of them (studying Napolean for my A2 levels as it happens) other than Socrates. You're right actually, plenty of others have had a greater effect in the shaping of the world, Hitler's actions and (in particular) atrocities have been made far more well-known though.

[Jamie.....]

Elvis Presley, Einstein, Shakespeare, Michael Jackon, Martin Luther King, Walt Disney, Moazrt, Napolean, Bill Gates, Princess Di, Isaac Newton, Picasso, Bill Clinton, Madonna, Leonardo Da Vinci

[BBfan46]

Elvis Presley, Einstein, Shakespeare, Michael Jackon, Martin Luther King, Walt Disney, Moazrt, Napolean, Bill Gates, Princess Di, Isaac Newton, Picasso, Bill Clinton, Madonna, Leonardo Da Vinci

Gross.

[BBfan46]

I'm gonna make a poll of this.

[Niamh.]

Elvis Presley, Einstein, Shakespeare, Michael Jackon, Martin Luther King, Walt Disney, Moazrt, Napolean, Bill Gates, Princess Di, Isaac Newton, Picasso, Bill Clinton, Madonna, Leonardo Da Vinci

Oh Einstein is a good one

Jesus existed. Its a fact. Whether he did what he did or was who he said he was is an entirely different argument

[Captain.Remy]

Jesus, by far. Whatever what he did is true or not, this guy influenced our background and heritages for thousands of years.

Gandhi is also on the top of the list. Such an inspiration for a lot lot lot of people.

And then Hitler. Alright, he's not so popular, he's quite infamous, what he did was wrong (obviously) yet he left his footprint for decades and what went from his ideas changed the world we live in today. Not considering him as a powerful and influential person is a mistake. Historians do consider him as a symbol.
So if by famous, you mean, well know but not necessarily popular, then he should be there.

Then we have the casual Michael Jackson, Elvis, Barack Obama and myself.

[BBfan46]

Jesus existed. Its a fact. Whether he did what he did or was who he said he was is an entirely different argument

It's likely but not fact.

[Shaun]

Jesus and Mohamed.

[Kazanne]

Jesus,Elvis,John Lennon,Hitler,Princess Diana ,Michael Jackson,Mother Theresa,there's quite a few,hard to say the most famous,imo it would be Jesus
