In this series of threads, we'll be posing a different question to discuss various individuals in history.
For this first thread, we'll pose the question as to who is the most influential person in human history? Given there's people in various fields of prominence, this is intentionally left vague to let you guys discuss whoever you want.
The person can be someone who reached the heights of their field, or who may have been less famous but responsible for creating, redefining or discovering something revolutionary to human history.
As ever, keep it thoughtful and don't bash others for their responses (but feel free to debate of course!)

Whoever inspired/invented Judaism (and therefore is in some way responsible for all the Abrahamic religions, and the way billions of people think) did pretty well, but don't know their name, so I'll go with Jesus.

Santa- selflessly gave small gifts to local children, created a community sense of festive goodwill and established a tradition of ensuring that reindeer receive sufficient exercise.

The First World War would likely have occurred regardless of whether Mr Princip assassinated Franz Ferdinand or not.

I would highly contest that.

Napoleon Bonaparte is certainly up there, George Washington too.
