Can one man really change the world?

Something I've thought about the last couple of weeks that Kenny brought to realization tonight:

Most animals, by the time they are 2 years old, can perform as well as thier parents. A human child is probably the most fragile being from birth when compared to all other creation. Without attention from its parents it would die within days. It takes over a decade to instruct it on how to survive, but most important, how to relate. Even with this exhaustive effort, there are still many failures. Upon reaching adulthood (or the age thereof), they feel like they know everything and that the world is there - it truly is. Alexander changed the Mediterranean, Hitler led a slaughter against a nation, Thomas Edison brightened the world, Einstein helped to find a new way to destroy it, and Jesus came to raise it from the dead.

Yes, a being that alone would not survive its first few years alone can change, can destroy, and can ressurect the world.
