My list keeping with Boru's pairs idea:
- Napoleon - George Patton (could seriously fuck some shit up) - Benjamin Franklin - Cleopatra (serious fucking) - Muhammad - Ibn Rushd (understanding Islam is a bit of a passion these days) - Thomas Jefferson - Abraham Lincoln (sit back and take notes) - Christopher Hitchens - William Shakespeare (command of the English language anyone?) For the nights entertainment: - John Bonham - Jaco Pastorius - Jimi Hendirix - Bon Scott - Louis Armstrong (musical director) 
Ooohh...
Christopher Hitchens to Hitch slap Mike Huckabee. George Carlin to make me lulz some more. Carl Sagan to exercise my sense of awe. Isaac Newton to pick his mercury addled mind. Johannes Kepler to sit in awe of his mind. Marie Curie to ask her it was worth it. Andrew Carnegie to get my entrepreneur on. John F. Kennedy to run for president in 2016. Charles Dickens (my boy Chucky D) to write some more for me to consume. Alexander the Great to tell me stories.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

This is to be a lively dinner party and I want to be entertained. So I'm eliminating Darwin and Newton right off the bat as known shy men. I'm also magically assuming that part of being brought back from the dead means speaking English.

If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
Are the parenthesized names aliases for the preceding name (sex change or whatever else)?
