| That would be stupid... the first 12 - 15 years were great because you were discovering everything for the first time. Youve got plenty more years ahead to enjoy your new found knowledge. |

true, but wouldn't it be so very interesting to look at the world back then with the knowledge that you have right now? |

Would you rule by the time you reach the same age again or what?! :eyespop: |
nope you wouldn't since your brain would not grow at the same rate as the other childrens, since it is developed to a certain point. You'd be a slow learner compared to most children.
In addition it would suck, since all my values are already developed and that means that i wouldn't have the opportunity to change them again. Also, my values are 'ok' for the current generation, but who knows if they still apply in 20 years? Also, wouldn't it be aweful when you are a newborn, you cannot speak, yet you remember HOW to do integrals? I mean, you are somewhat helpless and PERFECTLY aware thereof? or wouldn't you be? |

Pedophilia would suddenly become legal......muhahahahaaa, I am sure micheal jackson would be the first to sign up for this.
actually if this happened it would give me more time to learn more, I would have an extra 23 years to read those novels I couldn't understand when I had the time and now that I can understand I have no time.
fantasy. |

Of course there's some things I might do differently if I could go back, but wanting to relive my entire life over again? I don't think so...
The knowledge we have now is only meaningful to our own personal lives. Let's say we went back and decided to study harder in school (or party harder, in my case) - what then? Suddenly our lives change, we're in new situations, all the knowledge we have now would fail us.
Everybody envisions this as going back 10 years and changing one little thing, then fast-forwarding 10 years again to see the results... but what if you actually had to relive those entire 10 years, those 3652 days? What if things turned out worse despite the knowledge you currently have? |
