If you could change the world?

pardon my blatant breaking of the "within my lifetime" rule and the presumed blasphemy(based on your own personal beleifs) of this statement, but I would consider traveling back in time and executing abraham(assuming he existed in the first place, if not then the original author(s) of such tales in his youth would be equally sutable) before his influence on the world led to the creation of all three abrahamic religions. In the place of the dogma that resulted from abraham's influence, I would hope to spread freethought, reason, and prematurely reinvent the scientific method from the original egyptian/greek concepts to something that can unite humanity instead of promoting the sectarianism that abrahamic religions thrive upon.

doing so, I would hopefully abridge all of the atrocities commited against ourselves in the name of imaginary fingerwaving beings dreamed up in the middle east. Frankly the amount of truely inhuman events commited in the name of god that such a murder would prevent is astronomical.

if your going to go there, y not just stop europeans from obtaining gun poweder and there for inventing guns. The chinese were extreamly advanced, as were the aztchs, as were the indians.

The other native americans did just fine, living harmony with the earth, and african tribes were also very advanced before the europeans came in with guns.

If the europeans never got guns, the world would have never gone through industrialization probably, but scientific inovations would have still occured. We'd live on a much cleaner earth, possibly where we'd be behind our current state of advancement, but maybe that wouldnt be altoghter bad.

The world would be a peaceful place, with the exeption of the european barbarians.

I'd go back to whenever AO became friendly to non-automags, and slap the naysayers silly, in a fanatical effort to reinvigorate the AO Automag Zealots that made this place kick butt compared to everything else on the web.

And I'd have participated more in the Starbasecgi encounters...

I woulda ***** slapped that snake (if you can even do that to a snake) or done something to stop the two from making the worste mistake of all time.

This only applies to people who believe in christianity and what not.

I'd go back in time, and change "Columbine" to "Columdine"... This way I wouldn't have to call the threadstarter and idiot.

Idiot.

I'm working with some teachers in my school to put together a benefit concert for Darfur. Local bands as well as one or two big ones.

If I can't go back and change what happened, then I will be damned if I can not help those in need.

Just an open question here. Why does everyone find it so necessary to help out everyone in need? The rest of the world can't rely on the US (and other powerful nations) to help them everytime their government gets taken over by a militia group or a civil war erupts.
