The feller that invented toilet paper. He did so much for humanity.

Someone like Adolph Hitler or Joseph Stalin would be interesting - just to grill them on how crazy and evil they are/were.

Churchill. And the champagne would be excellent.

Why not Jesus?

I’d definitely choose someone living because lunch with a dead person would be rather boring, if not downright creepy.

4 men, one of whom I don’t know his name.

1. Socrates
2. Jesus
3. George Washington

That covers knowledge, faith and action superbly.

The other was the guy who first realized by striking two of the right types of rocks together he could make sparks and thus create fire. He was a freaking genius and made all that followed possible.

“Probably Winston Churchill.”

Churchill for sure. Could have fine cigars and liquor to boot.

So many other worthy candidates: Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Sitting Bull, Chief Joseph, Geronimo, Patton, Ike, Erwin Rommel, Norman Schwartzokopf, Charles Lindberg, Vince Lombardi, Johnny Orr, etc.

Benjamin Franklin and I think he would give me no spin. He was in such pain from bad kidneys (stones) that he was carried down the cobbled streets of Philadelphia on a pallet, by men. He could not endure the vibrations of being in a horse n carriage.

During The Constitutional Convention. (Internet says it was bladder stones)
