Not to sound anti-christian or anything, but if you believe Jesus is the son of God and that you'll meet them both in the Ever after, then why would you waste your wish on meeting him back when he was human?

Jesus, Himself said to Thomas, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." If I told you I was 100% certain, I'd be a liar. Doubt creeps in on occasion. But to have seen his miracles, myself, and listened to his parables? Priceless.

But if I could really pick the person / people I could see, then I would rather have a few more moments with my Mom, Dad and oldest brother than anyone else.

I dunno about just wanting to meet Jesus; there are a lot of Judeo-Christian folks that come to mind:

Jews:

Samson: Boozer, man-whore, and badass for the Lord
King David: Curious about his collection of foreskins and exactly how to shoot an arrow so accurate it can slit the throat of it's target
Elijah: Curious about that summoning of the two 'she-bears' to kill 40 some odd kids who were making fun of him for being bald.
Moses: I mean, Charleton Heston parted the sea...
Solomon: to see the ring in action
Michael, Archangel: Who wouldn't want to meet the fiery badass that went toe to toe with Lucifer?

Christian:

Peter: Just to see "The Rock" rip into someone's ass
Paul: to philosophize
Jude Thaddeus: Cousin of Jesus, would love to see him do the impossible
The Sons of Thunder: Almost as metal as "The Rock"
Ignatius of Loyola: Gereral boozer, pirate, man-whore, and founder of the Jesuit order
Augustine: General Boozer, man-whore, and one of the most insightful of the Christian philosophers
Moses the Black: Headed a den of theives, ran from the egyptian military, forced to become a monk, general man-whore, gave his life to defend the monastery relics during a civil war.
Balthazar, Melchoir, Gaspar: I mean, the three kings were really some of the first people to encounter Jesus.
Constantine the Great: first Christian emperor, mandated the Second Nicean Council
Nicholas of Myra: Defender against the Arian Contraversy
Benedict: the first Monk
Konrad III: assasinated by a radical group of Muslims, could have plausibly ended the crusades.
Malchus: Peter lopped off his ear
John the Baptist: the reed in the desert; First among men, last among the order of Heaven. Jesus even elaborates that a war was fought in Heaven for John.

The list goes on and on...

My whole thing with Jesus though, is that we've all probably met him but never for one second realized who he was.

Don't care much for famous people but I sure would love to smoke a fine Cuban with my dad. He passed about 20 years ago. He smoked only occasional Roi Tans, White Owls and El Productos and I managed to thief one or two when I was young but never smoked one with him.

4 yrs ago last week. We never really got along until the last few years of his life. I regret that we didn't have that time together...

With that said, if it could be proven that he in fact existed, I would substitute Abraham for any of the 3 above.

Thankfully, I was given the time to connect positively with my dad. We've got our business squared away.
