no, this is kind of confusing.
okay so i'm working in a group.
we picked a topic (cathedrals)
and i got stuck doing the 'person' part of the project.
that means i have to do a 2 minute presentation on a famous person, but the famous person has to have something to do with cathedrals.

Okay, so you have to do a presentation on a famous person, but you have no idea about cathedrals, so you go to the History category and not the Homework Help category to ask for help. So, what did you have in mind?

Nods to flondo...first person who comes to my mind is St. Thomas Becket, who was murdered in a cathedral (Canterbury). How that cathedral continues to honor him 800 years later I personally think is very interesting.
