I think you should do more research.

I wouldn't say he's the greatest, but I don't know if anyone can ever really figure out who the greatest human being ever is. Perhaps it's just some dude who happened to do something at just the right time and set off a series of events that eventually culminated in the greatest advance in human history. But we don't know who he is, what he did, or what he caused.

I have a few who are really cool:

Carl Sagan - Childhood hero, creator of the inspiring series COSMOS, and all around very good scientist who fought against the nuclear crisis.
James Clerk Maxwell - Unified Electricity and Magnetism into four equations.
Richard Feynman - Created Quantum Electrodynamics, and patented the Feynman Diagram.

Now that may be because I'm a physics major, but with all respect the above people are much cooler than Lincoln, especially good 'ol Carl.

Personally I'd say Alexander the Great(He concurred the world) or General Patton for being one of the greatest Generals in the modern age but my Favorite President is old Honest Abe

There are many, many "Greatest human that ever lived." And those are just the one's I've read from Cracked.com articles or their books on my own.

This man. Everyone else can take a seat, and let this man bask in the light of philanthropic goodness.
Edit: If this man is not at God's right side -right now- I'll go and make it so when it's my time.

He is up there among the greats, but I don't know if he was the greatest.
P.S. I MUST get me one of them hats.
