A frightening thought. Actually, I would never push him in the direction. I'll leave that to the Lord.

Not sure about Bach. But check out the progeny of Jonathan and Sarah Edwards (New England pastor 18th c)

An investigation was made of 1,394 known descendants of Jonathan Edwards of which 13 became college presidents, 65 college professors, 3 United States senators, 30 judges, 100 lawyers, 60 physicians, 75 army and navy officers, 100 preachers and missionaries, 60 authors of prominence, one a vice-president of the United States, 80 became public officials in other capacities, 295 college graduates, among whom were governors of states and ministers to foreign countries.

Careful about Edwards. Aaaron Burr was his grandson. He had his granddad's brain without his character and Gore Vidal is a remote descendent.
