It has been imagined before .. that we know our whole lives as angels, before we volunteer .. but then an angel makes a mark beneath the nose, that causes us to forget everything before we become humans. This is explored in a secular way, in the movie Baby Geniuses.

I'd wait a couple hundred years, but yeah. Existing and taking part in neat stuff sorta beats the alternative.

But what kind of an experience or information do I have to make the decision before I was born?

Oh God, if there ever were a movie to make you lose faith in the human species...

@OP, I like my life, so I think I would've chosen to come into it.

(Could've done without The years of puberty though.)

If there was I choice I'd have opted for tanned skin, amazingly light and long hair that would last all my life, good genetics, and being well endowed.

Depends, do I get a choice where I'm born? Can I chose my sexuality? Can I chose my race? Sex? Socioeconomic status?

I hit the lottery with white American male, but damn I missed out on the straight and rich part.
