Mark Bittner - he was a bum with a Wikipedia page, and all because of his care and friendship with a flock of wild parrots in San Francisco.
He was a bit of a world famous, especially since they made a documentary about him in 2003 called "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill" that can be seen on Dailymotion

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
