Which option would you choose from these choices?

A, of course.

Depends on whether the person would like to re-live their life with such memory, and what’s on the list of random super-powers, and how they feel about those.

The first two have some problematic implications for me, such as:

1a) If someone has memories of their previous life, which they are now re-living, they may mourn/regret/compare things that they experienced the first time, but won’t this time, which may cause confusion and problems.

1b) It either resets “reality” and the timeline for one person, or it suggests there are many different timelines. Both of these greatly devalue the significance of the timeline one’s currently paying attention to.

2) Superpowers suggest that others also have superpowers, which one may then need to worry about the implications and consequences of. This means living in a comic book universe and upping the stakes to supernatural conflicts, and so on, which is in some ways potentially a dystopian nightmare.

3) The conception of death, deities, death, and what’s “supposed to happen” and compensation, seem perverse to me, if taken seriously and thought out to their conclusions.

Which is all interesting to me, in a way.

But as a fun thought problem, I can find both of the first offers appealing, at least in a superficial first-consideration kind of way. I’d tend to choose the first, to work through some regrets, get to spend more time with people I’ve loved and cared about, and say more/different things from a perspective of greater experience and wisdom, etc. And to be able to do things like make computer games that would have rocked in the 80’s. And to know the future of various world events, and be able to use that to make a lot of differences in various ways through hindsight.

Thanks for the replies.
