OK, I went to movies today, and I'm pretty sure you can guess what movie I saw...  Anyway, the question is quite simple. YOU are selected to be God for an unknown (to you) period of time. Could be 35 minutes or 3 years or 2 hours or... What would you do? Feed all the hungry people on earth? Turn all the water to Dr. Pepper? Give everyone a third eye on the back of their head?
And about the movie itself, it was actually a lot better (=funnier) than I expected. And there were surprisingly many cute guys watching it, so I had a good time... And I even managed to see the movie

1. I want a laptop that is allways top of the line, so that when technology gets better the laptop "gets updated". Unbreakable, preferably. And if you want to know what the laptop would look like, go to IBM's website, find 'Notebooks' from 'Products' and take a visual tour of the G series.
2. I'd like a permanent, works-no-matter-where-I-am internet connection to go with the laptop. 512 kbps both ways would be sufficent.
3. I saw a very nice pair of sunglasses today, conveniently priced at about $350... They'd be nice.
4. And since I'd be wearing the sunglasses, I'd need a pair of contact lenses.
5. Now, I've got a laptop, internet access, sunglasses and contact lenses... So it's time to do my best at being God. Try and make the world a better place. Not a perfect, everyone-is-happy-all-the-time place, but considerably less suffering, especially for kids. And less pollution and more nature.
I think that about covers it...

The serious answer is so hard. If I change this, what\ else happens?
My choice is- to remove the need for wars
- to deploy true communism "To each according to his need, from each according to his ability"
- remove any need or duty to worship me
- ensure that, if people do worship me, my rules of total tolerance are reinforced
- remind people that I created all races, colours, creeds, orientations, and that I do not make mistakes
- ensure there is sufficient food and drink for the world
- temper people's desire for children to ensure that overpopulation does not take place
Quite a lot, and all done in a split second

That was the coolest movie I ever saw, well with the exception of maybe Boondock Saints. But it was really really good. I loved it when he notices hes on the water and starts to creep back towards land slowly tying not ot fall thorugh!! Its great
peace and trees

I haven't seen the movie, but if I were God I don't think I'd do much that current one hasn't already done. All the altruistic type stuff like world peace and ending hunger would probably make this a fairly boring world to live in and mankind would likely stagnate instead of moving forward because there wouldn't be any need. So I'd probably just kill of the world's flea population and then sit back and watch.
Think good thoughts,

...If I was all-powerful, I'm not really sure now how much I'd want to interfere with other people's lives.
One thing I would do however is making so that anyone hurting someone else on purpose experiences the exact same amount of hurt as all those affected feels. Not like, gets his head blown off if he shoots someone, there would "only" be mental pain. I would want the person to have the chance to learn from his mistakes. Hope that doesn't make me too cruel, but I really think that would quickly become a pretty strong deterrent against violence towards your neighbors...

Greed is such a despiccable quality in people.
If someone comes up with the bright idea of using seashells as legal tender and starts hoarding them, I'd make seashells worthless also. I really don't like the concept of money.

not only get rid of fleas, I'd also make all foods equally nourishing and equally non-fattening.

Hm, there's probably lots of things I would do... 
...Oh! I'd make money, gold, diamonds etc worthless too. 
I'm for non-interference, too, e! Except that I'd...
