The Cowardice of the Grim Reaper
Shortly before the sun goes supernova in five billion years, science will have made a storage device small enough to to put the entirety of human knowledge onto a platinum grain of rice which they will fire into deep space in the hope that new forms of sentient life can learn from our grievous mistakes as a species.
However we might evolve as a species between now and then, there is one champion being who will be remembered throughout the ages of man. You might be thinking of the likes of Plato, Aristotle or maybe Socrates if you have a classical education. A near-easter might consider Confucius or even Sun Tsu for their generous observations.
Europeans might choose Milton, Descartes or St. Thomas Aquinas.
The more feeble-brained Americans might select Jefferson, Madison, Roosevelt while the more educated would choose more wisely, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse come to mind but as stellar examples of humans as all of those men are, all of them are wrong.
