If we had the technology, would you bring someone back from the dead?

It depends. What would be the consequences? Would we literally be resurrecting their rotten corpse, or would it be more like restoring them as a copy of themselves when they died?

I think that if we were able to regenerate someone who suffered an unfair death (senseless murder, for example) with no effects such as still having decaying skin/brain damage/etc, then we should at least attempt it. Perhaps people could put in their wills that they're OK with being brought back to life if they die under certain conditions.

However, death by old age I believe should be left alone. We're not meant to live forever, and dying has a purpose: we're already becoming overpopulated. Removing death from that opens up a brand new can of words.

Side: I would

I would not bring someone back from the dead. I would be afraid that I would just have to watch them die again.
