Like, now? No way. I would choose to continue my unborn existence. However, if I could choose a time period, that would be a different story.
We all had a choice (well, maybe not ivf babies), we were just so dumb (single cell sperm) that the “choice” was not informed.
Not even true, contrary to popular belief it doesn’t take one sperm cell in order to fertilize an egg it takes a bunch of sperm cells to fertilize an egg. This is why when men ejaculate they don’t just ejaculate one sperm cell they ejaculate at least half a shot glass.
If a different sperm had won, I wouldn’t be here.
Team effort or not, there is one success.
You’ve got a point. What was I thinking swimming to that egg?
I don’t know what I would choose, I was just a little baby at the time
Seeing as how shit everything is, no.
Some religions -old and new - believe we choose the lessons we come to learn. If we learn quickly, we can advance to more advanced lessons, if we refuse or aren’t capable of understanding our lessons, we repeat them, in one life or another. Just as settings, teachers and teaching styles vary, so do the subjective experiences and understanding of the lessons. Repeating them is karma. Demonstrating grasp and practical application is dharma. Choosing to incarnate to help others learn because one feels a deep empathy and compassion for everyone on the wheel of Samsara is bodhisattva.
Some of these religions believe we reincarnate until we have lived every experience from every possible perspective.
That said, back to my own cultural religious teachings, would I eat again from the tree of knowledge of good and evil? If I’m honest, on my worst days, no. On ok and best days? Yes. It’s good to experience things from various perspectives. Our imaginations have been constrained and lack ability. Physical and intellectual exercise is the remedy.
no.
Same
Now? No.
If I had the choice I’d wait a century or twoIf it was before I’d had my kids, probably. Now with my kids existing in the world, I’d essentially be deleting their existences too, so no.
naw
Yes. We have to persist through the horrors, thats just how it is on this bitch of an earth
Yes. Everything is pointless and nothing is forever. Might as well enjoy the life we’ve got. Non-existence is better for some people, but I think on the whole life is worth living for most people.
Yeah, it’s worth it. Plus maybe I can help.

Yes. If I’m actually some kind of cosmic being that can choose to be born yes, I am taking that pill. I’m taking all the experience pills.
Maybe if I had the choice of where and when to be born. Much too risky to leave it up to chance though
