1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    Okay, you know what, this list is really biased.

    You only have on religious individual on there.

    If you're going to mock Jesus then put up Buddha, the stories about him make Lord of the Rings seem like 15th century medieval europe.

    How bout Krishna??

    Seriously now, I don't believe Jesus turned water into wine or other magical things.

    People should see The Last Temptation of Christ, that's the most realistic portrayal of Jesus ( and still maybe a little exagerated ).

    The other people on the list also mostly are modern.

    Reagan and Thatcher were ruling countries just 20 years ago.

    And Reagan in the United States where he was voted #1 American all time is grossly overrated.

    I still say Reagan over Jesus, in 1000 years if any remnant of the U.S. is still in existence Reagan will probably be made to look like Big Brother.
