Quote by: Isherwood  Aren't you describing the thrill we felt as kids making something out of Legos or Lincoln Logs, the same feeling we get now from writing a program that actually works? We do get lots of chances to be creators. Obviously not on as grand a scale as ascribed to gods, but on a scale we can still appreciate and enjoy. Parents are creators on several levels. |
Not only parents, every living being keeps on creating some thing or the other thing during their entire life period, depending on their likings at a particular point of time. Hobbies are there in which one usually keep itself busy. But then, keeping on doing only one particular thing would also become boring. Therefore, alternative choices are also to be there for change over.
It was in this pretext, few months back I opened a thread "Ultimate purpose of life!!" My own coclusion was to remain happy, peaceful and satisfied!!!!:)

Quote by: Zinkovich You have the power to create a microcosm in which you define the laws, the parameters, or the very meaning/mechanisms of life itself beneath you. Would you view it as an oppurtunity to give meaning to something that didn't exist before, or a game? Would you take your duty seriously, or would the "lesser" nature of what you are creating less impact you?
I want to know what your personality would translate into if you yourself became a God, in other words, as well as other creator personalities that could possibly exist or emerge. |
In case I get Godship, I would only remove death and keep aging upto middle age only ( say 50 years and no further old age) from the current scene, rest is perfectly O.K with me. In other words, according to new system after say 50 years of age people would start looking year after year like 49, 48, 47---->1 year. Then again 2, 3, 4,5 ----->50 years, so on and so forth. But what other problems would come up in this new created system I would have to watch out for few thousand years. May be I may opt to revert to current system only or modify as per that time need!!!:eek:

Both intelligence and peaceful are relative and therefore such parameters can never be specified and demarkated as absolute!!!

Or just do some kind of cool looking animal or plant, like a three headed monkey with wings and built in parking lights.
Or both
