if god (a god, the god, whatever god you want) comes up to you and says, "in 1000 years, the world will end - i cant decide, so i want you to decide the fate of the world for me - ill give you five days, in exchange, ill give you five years extra to live"
what fate would you give the world?
nuclear war?
a peaceful death to the entire population via some unknown virus?
none of those to be honest - i like the idea of the question, as it gives the person gods asking such a huge responsibility. The very thought that you literally have the entire world in your hands. The idea that you can dictate how for generations to come, their fate was already sealed by your choice. its almost like an overwhelming sense of choice - literally infinite options!
