Not 100% but I would guess the religion one is Martin Luther who nailed a list of all the problems he had with the church to their door despite their unreasonable power at the time and the social and political backlash that was inevitably going to come back on him.
Luther was a hero of sorts for standing up to the Catholic church that had brought about the dark ages through it's abuse of power and forced them to reform under the public eye.

I'm surprised more people do not know why so many are direct descendants of Genghis Khan, sure he raped a lot of women, but the real reason was that he had a Harem of at least a couple hundred women, if not thousands. This contributed to a lot of bastards. However, his 4 legitimate sons who shared Mongolia after Genghis Khan ALSO had harems with hundreds of women, and their children in turn ALSO had harems with many women. This is the reason why so many people are descendants from Ghengis Khan.

There's actually a genetic study (Zerjal et al., 2003) that shows that 0.5% of the male (it's only looking at the Y chromosome) population of the world might be direct descendants of Genghis Khan. And I feel the need to point out that he raped a lot of women, but hey, seems to be an evolutionarily successful strategy!

The one with hooked up, is man quite known for having a harem (you know, shitload of womens) and the one with religion is also quite known man (I don't remember either names) for causing an upproar for challenging other religions, the irony is you must have balls of steel for challenging someone about their religion over the internet, rather than face to face.

"Religion" is Nicholas Copernicus. He challenged the universally accepted idea that the earth revolved around the sun by stating that it was more likely that it was the other way around. Of course, he got a lot of shit from many other people, but he was right.
You got that backwards mate. The generally accepted fact around the globe was that the earth was the center of the universe, and every other planet revolved around it. Nicholas Copernicus and Galileo Galilei where two of the people to come with the other theory. I believe that Galileo was found guilty of heresy, and placed in house arrest where he died. Not too sure about Copernicus.
