There might've been a moment in my early 20's when I would have chosen a short life packed full of neat shit, but I am almost 30 now. I have great kids, and I wouldn't mind seeing who they grow up to be, and also I'd enjoy meeting my grandchildren someday. Obscurity is peaceful.
Almost 30, wow! When you reach 60, you may think a bit differently about questions like this I suspect ( from my own experience ).
As regards fame, I love music, hence my examples of who I would have chosen to be over being me. A rock hero, wow, nirvana! Dying young as a religious martyr, for example, no thanks! Obscurity wins over that.
A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
