Frankly Sean, I was hoping for something more Doc Brown, involving the total destruction of the whole universe, or at the very least our own galaxy. I'm not upset, just disapointed.

Mohammad, Christ, 'Virgin' Mary, Mary Magdalene, and a miscellaneous prostitute. Just to see what is what and how they'd react to my #6.
Hitler could fill in for Mohammad, to see how his reaction would be to meeting Jesus, and visa-versa.
Moses could fill in for Christ, which could cause a bit of tension with Mohammad/Hitler.
Mother Teresa could fill in for either Mary.
As for the rest, well, that would just have to develop.

So you *want* the table to be all tense?

Moses is actually an important prophet in the Islamic faith. His life is given a fuller account in the Koran than most prophets recognized by Islam.

Man, you guys really took to this, more so than any other place I've posted it. I'm glad to see it. Some interesting choices among some of the obvious ones. Anyway, my first-string would be as follows:
Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus Augustus
Norton I, Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico
Mae West
Scheherazade
Hatshepsut
All are "royalty" in there own way (as Mae West was queen of the movies). Two are entertainers. Two fought for power. Three were highly beloved by their peoples. I think it would be a hell of a conversation as the rulers (real & not) talked shop, as the entertaining lasses spun their wiles.
Second-string would be as follows:
Livia Drusilla, later Julia Augusta
Margaret Brown, AKA "Molly Brown"
Robert Heinlein
Golda Meir
Jon Stewart
How would the replacements affect things? Well, if Livia was there with Augustus, he'd have a very different attitude, that's for sure; she manipulated him greatly. I think Mae West & Molly Brown would get along grandly, & Heinlein would really dig everyone. Golda & Augustus would probably bond over the problems in Judea, & I think Stewart would dig Mae, Molly, & Golda as well as have loads of fun with Norton.

Oh, I could come up with many lists of comedians I would love to eat with. The conversations would no doubt be very interesting.

Scheherazade is a fictional character, isn't she?

Oh. I thought she was based around a few Persian queens, but she herself was a character. Well, live and learn.
