Existance filled with adversity, or no existance?

GAHD and I had a conversation moments before I post this that came to this subject. I would like to know which road you would prefere to take, if you had the choice.

Background Info on how it started (also to set a little scenerio):
As we sat in Perkins discussing Time Travel, GAHD mentioned that he theorized a way to travel "back" in time in order to kill yourself and still exist. His theory involves paralell dimensions of alternate possibilities occuring at a present time yet each could be of different timelines in history. One of the problems that might occur is that you travel to a world that might be unstable to sustain you (which could cause instant death). I posed the question to him: Which would be worse, instant death in the way he mentioned? Or, travel to a world of pure chaos in which you could not manipulate in your favor, so you will have to survive either alone/in pain/constant torture...

In essence: would you rather live in an existance filled with adversity, or no existance at all?

Oops. Thanks GAHD for the title.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
