And, you're free to interpret the verb "to know" as anywhere from a casual acquaintance to outright shagging. The Bible is mostly about men. I am limited to 20 entries in the poll. I just had to pick out some of the more salient characters.

Abraham. Just to tell him what an utter moron he is and that he should keep his insane delusions to himself and not let them out on other people. _________________ I'm Vince. I make the music. And puppet. http://www.swenglish.nu

Absalom seems like he would have been fun.

2 Samuel 16 wrote:

they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.

Absalom's father, David, did have quite a lot of concubines. It would have been fun at least to watch. Although, if he is on a roof-top, I wonder how much anyone would be able to see? An ampitheatre would have been a better venue.

Some of the ladies might prefer Onan, as being the first (and only) Biblical character to practise contraception. With anyone else, you'd be getting a creampie.

Jacob - that lying, cheating, unethical, magical-thinking goon would be interesting to talk to, probably.

I want to meet Job and tell him that his God is a manipulative bastard. I would also like to slap him in the face for being an idiot. If David looks anything like the Michelangelo statue then I would like do be impure thing to him and his slingshot. _________________ “During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act" ~George Orwell "I belive in God, only I spell it Nature." ~ Frank Llyod Wright
