It would depend on how much of the future I had knowledge of. Kind of like do you want to stick with the devil you know, or go with a devil you don't know?
Say you had the chance to change one piece of history, (for example, kill off Hitler as a baby), and you could foresee what the alternate reality would be, (maybe a more viscous ruler is put into Hitler's place-some who not only kills Jews, but also goes after 10 other nationalities). Would you still kill Hitler, knowing his replacement is going to cause a million more deaths?
This is a really intriguing question, Cracker, you got my mind going in 5 different directions. Good thread.
