I can't believe I forgot Schneerson. I can't believe most other people forgot Bar Kokhba.

This is a tricky quiz and misleading in a lot of ways. Not many people believed that Bar Kochba was the messiah, although Rabbi Akiva did. As for Rabbi Schneerson, only one sect of Lubavitch hasidim believe this; the other sects do not. Only Shabetai Zvi had any sizeable following.
