Clearly, Leonardo da Vinci is the greatest genius ever. Actually, he is the only person I know of that fits my definition of "genius""I have been reading up on the universe and have come to the conclusion that the universe is a good thing." -- Dissident

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Aristotle was important but pales in comparison to other people mentioned in this thread.Originally posted by Agathon
Aristotle. No contest. Even if he was wrong about a lot of stuff, the others are lightweights compared to him.
We're not talking about most important to your pansy field, but the smartest. Someone who is wrong half the time isn't a genius, he's a perfect example of the Philosopher's shotgun theory of intellectuality...with enough pellets one of them is bound to hit.

da Vinci is clearly the definition of genius -- he was even gay. I don't know how much more proof one needs.
Turing, also gay, is up there himself, but not the "greatest genius"."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
