If you could have one Superpower what would it be and what would you use it for?

2016-02-24T12:57:32-05:00

What would your superpower be & how would you use it?

Again, try to be professional.

My Superpower would be the ability to connect and communicate through the mind (mental telepathy) - I would use my mine to connect with as many veterans and service members to stop or convince them from committing suicide and find the underlying way to treat them properly or help heal their wounds!

COL Mikel J. Burroughs If I could have one superpower it would be to have superior intelligence. I would use it to come up with ideas that would make advances so that the thinking of all of humanity is elevated to new levels.

While professor Xavier's mental telepathy would be cool, can't I just go with the Phoenix powers??? Telepathy and the ability to destroy or create anything I wanted, what's not to like?

The super power I would desire is omniscience COL Mikel J. Burroughs. If I knew everything I would be able to help anybody in need of information or wisdom or anything else for that matter. Thankfully only the perfect God has omniscience.

Mine would be the power that Mel Gibson had where he could hear what women were thinking. I would finally be able to decipher what women mean vs. say, I wouldn't have to look up women's catch phrases online to see when that smile is good or bad.
One I'd really like to have would be the power of healing. In the Green Mile Duncan's character was able to take pain from others into himself and expel it into nothing. That would be great to have, and I'd just walk around helping people release the pain they're holding inside. The only issue with this is, I couldn't help myself.

I would love the power to remove hate and greed from the heart. So much hate is not based on what one person did to another in the present, but one person long, long ago did to someone else. We hate mostly because of the past and not the present. The other act of aggression is over greed.

To manipulate time (stop or slow it down to a super crawl), that way I can "see" things coming. Just think of all the firefights that would never be lost and all the wounded Joe's that could be saved.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs If I could, it would be control of the force. As much as I would like to say that I would use it to solve the problems of the world, I think that the reality is that after realizing that some things cannot be fixed, I would simply use it to become a televangelist, collect my billions in donations, then hide on an island somewhere.

To know all that a human could know: by merging the best aspects of the human brain and computers. To manage space and speed in my software with the same precision and speed as a computer, but with all the capabilities of a human brain. To delete un-needed files, and free excess capacity and allocate to tasks, to focus relentlessly as needed.

How to use it? To save the world. And make lots of money.

I would use mine to prevent war and poverty all over the world. So there would be no one to ever go hungry and be without the bare necessitys that are needed. There would be no more wars at all, everyone would get along. The rich people would be upset with me because there wouldn't be a need for all the supplies that would be needed for war.

This question pops up once in a while on almost every website I've been on and one person gave an answer that no one ever picks but is amazing at the same time. Shape shifting. Think about it, need swim to the deep depths of the ocean, shape shift into a fish that can make it there. Want to fly? Shape shift into a bird. Want to kick ISIS ass and scare the hell out of them at the same time? Shape shift into a damn T Rex and stomp them out. The list and possibilities go on and on. So I will take shape shifting.

Before I even opened this question up to read comments I was thinking the exact same thing. The power of mind reading. I have a thick skin and you'd never know if comments or words bothered me. I have a saying: "Even if I don't like you, you would never know it."
With that being said, I really would give anything to have the power to read a Soldier's mind to see what he was thinking. Good or bad, I would use it in a positive way and I believe I could save many lives or at least make them better.
