There once was a guy that claimed - for a lark - he and his friends were 
more popular than fore mentioned savior. He was murdered in 1980.

Just thought you'd like to know you might be better off claiming you're 
older than Homer, Ikhnaton, Solomon, Rome and some other stuff. Unlike 
Kunalpatel you're not immortal.
