...would you take it, and if so, what would it be?
-No wishing for more wishes
-You can't convert anybody to Christianity
-When you make your wish, you cease to exist. No Heaven. No Hell. You're just gone.

I know the other atheists might give me **** for not asking them... :P I just wanted to get the attention of the Christians. I don't care who answers.

"no thanks...your limits suck...God has NO LIMITS.."
A good Christ-like attitude? You bet! :P

I'm surprised that fewer people didn't decide to do something good for humanity in general with their wish. I haven't given it much thought, but with the little bit of time that I have, I've decided my wish would be for every human from then on to be less selfish in that they would consider anything that caused more suffering than good to be anathema. To consider those things to not be worth the wrong in them (and this includes anything capable of suffering, including animals).
And before anybody counters this ignorantly, I consider even ONE person burning in Hell for eternity to be more suffering than any good that ever was or ever will be could justify. :)

If you happen to be thinking this:
"That was a waste of 5 points. Addressing your Q to Christians, and saying we can't be with God, what did you think we'd wish for? A million dollars?!"
...then you don't have the kind of love that Jesus wants you to have. And you're also a hypocrite. How could you claim that you love God and you love people and not want something better for them, even at the expense of your own existence?
If this is what you are thinking, then I'M a better Christian than you. And that's, well, really sad for you, because according to you, I'm going to Hell.
Wow, I thought the answers to this question would show how good most of the people are R&S are at heart, but it seems to have proven just the opposite.
And THAT...
...is depressing.

WORLD PEACE!
Can I go now?
Edit: You know I am no longer a Christian, but I still believe in God. Now I see how all the "Christians" are answering this question I am starting to think that what I had always thought may just be true. People become "Christian" not out of love for God but out of fear of hell and because of the promise of heaven. I always thought I was weird because I didn't want to go to heaven and Hell didn't scare me. I see now that God has given me a very special gift.
Blessings !

You took away all the best wishes, but I would still wish
that the 2nd coming of the Lord would happen before
the United States becomes like Sodom & Ghomorrah
and an evil nation which might even become run by
dictators or terrorists in the future.

I can't imagine what I could wish for that would be better than Heaven. And since you limited me from converting anyone to Christianity, the one wish I would give up Heaven for is not allowed. But it would be that both my children become strong Christians.

Well your hypothetical "wish" is immaterial. I wouldn't choose anything over God.
That was a waste of 5 points. Addressing your Q to Christians, and saying we can't be with God, what did you think we'd wish for? A million dollars?!

Pass. Eternity with God is just too good of an oppurtunity too miss.

So if I take the wish I can't go to heaven? I'll pass.

No, I wouldn't take it. To just cease to exist would be an awful waste.

My wish would be to convert everybody. I know you ask that we not say that but, that is how I feel.

Too many conditions attached to this wish to make it worthwhile.
