If a tree falls: Would you want to live that way?

Just wandering what you guys think of the 'second chance' in if a tree falls.
Devon seems like a selfish idiot to me, exposing his friends and ending their second life because of his own belief that he had to right his wrong with god for not dying. I know it was his intention to release only himself, but he must have thought how it could go wrong and just left well enough alone.

But really, is his logic so faulty? Would that really be any kind of life? I mean it never goes into specifics, what happens when your body starts to decompose? Would you age? What about if you died again. Could you die twice? What about if you could not die and subsequently gained immortality. Everyone you loved would die, and it would just be the three of you forever. Would you end up bitter and isolated save for each other? Could you handle immortality with the same three people?

I think personally I'd take the second chance, but then I love life, have no exclusive religious beliefs and have also felt the pain of losing someone before and would not want to inflict it on those I love if I could prevent it. Plus if I was lucky enough to survive death with my partner like Devon/Bethany I would be happy.

It's just an interesting concept. It is our very nature to fear death yet death is natural and unavoidable. Would it be wrong as Devon thought, to try to pervert nature by hiding your death? Or is it truly a god given second chance to be treasured as Bethany suggested.
