Well I did briefly in first post. I would want to exist as a living being. 10000 years of being alive opposed to 10000 years of being dead. I love existing that much How many years could I spend mastering all the sciences all the arts. How much already availabe is ready to be learned and enjoyed if only you had the time. Now thats just the current knowledge. Add all the new knowledge, all the new technology, all the new discoveries, that life would continue to add to the wealth of possible things to spend ones time on. Not to meantion dreaming. I wouldnt mind dedicating 2/3 of my life to that for thousands of more years! Basically, I would exist. I believe I would be happy doing so.

Its like highlander you cant die unless your head is severed then you die a normal death. So avoid having your head chopped off and all other parts regenerate to health if severed or damaged.

Further, if I'm still dealing with the Christian god, I'd require a legal team from Hell working in my favor, since, according mythology, Hell has all the best lawyers.
