Be a normal human and live forever (assuming it was as a young person) Eventually science is going to come up with a way to make superhumans, so all I have to do is live long enough for that day.

id rather live like superman and die because being superman would be an experience like no other and if you lived forever that would suk because of all the pain that you see and you can never die and you will eventually end up insane and wont be thinkin right.

Definitely the first one. That'd be a fun life, I'm sure, though probably a very short lived one since people with lotsof power tend to be rather careless, never realizing how very mortal they are ^^ I remember there being another myth about a man who asked for immortality and was given it but he forgot to ask for youth so he kept getting older, and older, and older until finally he became a cricket. Or was it a grasshopper? Something along those lines. But yeah, I don't envy them gods their immortality ^^

I would like to be the human if I had eternal youth. However, if not, i would much rather be Superman.

There is an old Greek myth about a man was given eternal life but he still became old and shriveled. Finally a deity came to him and asked what would be his greatest wish. He replied: To die! I choose to be neither and that is why I am who I am. Think any otherwise and soon you will be brought face to face with with your folly!

I would prefer to be a Superwoman with powers that I could use to help others.
Living forever might be painful, because I would repeatedly lose my loved ones.

Superman doesn't have the powers I'd like to have. I'd rather have the 'Q' power (Star Trek) and be mortal.

it relatively is an quite good question!!! in my opinion, there are no " wide-spread" human beings. maximum folk ought to comply with what their Society Considers " wide-spread". if that they had a call, maximum of Them would not Conform. they could do as they Please. what's " wide-spread" in Asia could be considered " unusual or perhaps weird and wonderful" in the U. S., Germany........etc. the various Cultures that adventure the Societies selection very much.Even in the comparable united states of america " wide-spread" would be diverse. what's " wide-spread" in manhattan isn't what's " wide-spread" in Los Angelas. AND the two a type of could be " weird and wonderful" in Texas. i understand this to be actual as I even have witnessed this myself on many Occations. it relatively is the place the fact, " whilst in Rome, Do by using fact the Romans" got here from. Even in the Bible it says, " Render unto Ceasar That it relatively is Ceasar's" you need to learn Philosophy. Plato, Socrates, and multiple others have argued over this question for hundreds of years.
