This seems like it could very well turn into a flames........ literally as well.
On-topic though, Jesus, definitely. Christianity is one of the most widespread religions (if not the most widespread) and Jesus is much more known than Alexander.
Its not a popularity contest, this thread is about which individuals actions have influenced the world more. Someone can be Christian and still be affected by what Alexander did in his time.

Jesus Stomps. He's the real God, any other is a phoney and a fake.
Great, you are the second christian I could find on this site.
I personally think them putting Jesus in a battle is stupid espcially since he refers mainly to a biblical being. Alots of people including myself worship him.
Most people don't worship him, this thread isn't a boxing match between Alexander & Jesus. Its about their achievements affecting the world.

I hope the user didn't mean blasphemy or anything like that in his heart when creating this thread.
As an atheist I don't generally think about blasphemy, but no I didn't sit down and write up this thread with the intention of blaspheming. I simply wanted to see a debate unfold on two very large individuals from history whom affected the world in very different ways.

Considering the human chronology is measured in years BEFORE CHRIST & ANNO DOMINI ( in the year of our lord) I'd say that's a pretty heavy influence,,Alexander of Macedonia was great ,,but Jesus impacts millions, everyone knows his name,,and sadly a lot of kids nowadays don't even know of Alexander of Macedonia ,,who btw was born in 356 "BC" lol
Are you saying Alexander's actions haven't impacted millions of people? There are cities all over the world that were named after him or named after cities founded by him (the US has over 20), but also Scotland, Iran, Canada, Turkey, Pakistan, Brazil and the list goes on. Not to mention how world militaries still refer and make use of his tactics or how he helped bring Greek ideas to the world (such as democracy).
This isn't me taking a side mind you, I just felt somethings needed to be pointed out in the interest of equality in this discussion.
