Where would you prefer to born if you were born at another era?

[Rigon]

For me it will be at the time of world war 1, it was gruesome and hellish and something only the lucky survive, I know it sounds foolish .For second it will certainly be the time of revolution in America, it's simply fascinating!

Yeah, the fun and joy of life doesn't actually come from being as comfortable as possible and living as long and pointlessly as you can...
I would trade a hundred year life span of nothingness for forty years of meaning.
That being said I would not choose to live in another era (if I could just visit one then maybe) but not for any of the reasons I have seen stated above. The thing is this era is awesome. Sure millions of people have seen the pyramids in Egypt, but I haven't yet, and I certainly hope to someday. Living in this time gives us an amazing opportunity to see our whole world to explore any number of possibilities and to learn sooo much more than has ever been possible before.
There are however many problems with the world now and just because you can go and travel the globe doesn't mean you will, but then it doesn't mean you would have in the past either.

There are many who would choose a hundred year life span of nothingness.

Remember, peace of mind equate "nothingness" (little to no desire of material world).

Wish I am born later. After we discover the art of immortality.

Same here except I'd go even further and say I would like to have been born in a post-singularity world with immortality, mind uploads, and a post-scarcity economy.

Would have been awesome if I had bought/mined a couple of bitcoins back in 2009 and used them to pay for a cryonics contract. That way, if I die, I'd wake up "reborn" as a cyborg or some sort of post-singularitarian consciousness in a virtual world. I could be a bird and experience flying or be a rocket and explore outer space.

Then if time travel is ever invented, I would be able to travel back in time to any era I wanted too.

I don't want to be born in the past unless I was a first son of a King or Emperor. Most luxuries enjoyed by the Kings in the past was enjoyed by Middle Class right now. We even enjoyed more luxuries than the kings in the Past because of the technology.

How can you know we won't find it before you die? 

That odd is rather low.

[petestheman]

Not a single person has actually answered this mans question. He doesn't care what you think about the eras or the logistics of life in those eras. He merely asked WHERE WOULD YOU PREFER TO BE BORN IF YOU WERE BORN AT ANOTHER ERA. He even gave an example.


I would love to live in between 1550 BC to 300 BC. I would like to be a Phoenician I just like what I have read about them ect. They are an interesting civilization that are rarely mentioned.

Personally, no, I'm just in time to jump in the bitcoin train before it reaches 10.000$ per coin. I think we live in the most interesting times now, and we can only imagine what's beyond.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

Wish i am born after world war lll. But hope it will never happen, i hate war.

[ObscureBean]

I don't know my choice is a possibility you would consider valid. I would love to be born in an era before man existed (I know...how can I be born if there are no humans around to give birth to me )
I understand that I would literally be the only human in existence but I'd love to witness the earth in it's pristine state 

[Swordsoffreedom]

I would like to be transient going through time and space in a formless shape
Able to move my soul into a physical form when I wake up from sleeping since the formless shape will be like slowly passing images but moving on a finite timeline in an accelerated sense in relative terms but slow in formless terms.
Then decide what eras I would live in.

But from your list I do not know the future but I would love to see the Cosmic Era myself.
Back in time Japan might be interesting but no anime yet so perhaps not too fun.
The Greeks perhaps and their hedonistic ways lol

At the least I would love to explore their hotsprings and hot spring eggs ^_^.
Get some obsidian from Volcanos
And watch Vesuvius erupt from a boat.

Oh and Beat up or outwit Socrates using modern philosophy to answer his darn questions!
Or at least attempt to. (Mumbles textbooks)

You want to be born a stone age nuclear winter?

I think he meant after the recovery if there is one and or the beginning of the space age as the damage to the environment on earth caused the human race to leave their planet in search of another location to survive in such as a Plant. (Gundam)

Idk, because in human development we sometimes have a genius that gives us leaps forward, like Tesla or Einstein.

[coinmaster222]

none of these eras but i would definatly prefer to be born on an era that had no wars , people had no conflicts with each other,people that had respect for nature and people that are worth living.
