We will remain clashing when it comes to belief systems, Shin'Ar, because you again speak of dangers.
According to my beliefs, there are no dangers. Especially not the kinds that you describe. Why? Because of two things:
First of all, the question really becomes this: do YOU as a consciousness, as a part of the Infinite Creator, want to experience the same thing forever? The answer is: define forever! As there is no time, there is no forever. If something seems to "forever" become entangled with some concept, it BECOMES that concept - and there is nothing wrong with it. Is there wrong with becoming an universal Law? The idea of Gravity? The hugs between friends? The moments passing before birth? Or really anything? Becoming a sunset, eternally representing that?
Mind you: This is still under the assumption that movement itself is just passing through an infinite number of frozen snapshot, different energy state universes, that will "forever" remain frozen, the experience of movement is for the consciousness to experience.
But the second is: do you really believe that you can be "forever" caught up in an incarnation? Pre-incarnationally, that one seems to be a very tricky plan. Either nothing can be lost (and then you relive the things you are addicted to until you burn out, which you will, eventually, so no forever in it), or if it seems that it can be lost, you would not arrange yourself (as your own higher-self, being in the templet level reality, constructing your life plan) into such risks - this is, assuming that something of you could be lost in the process. Which, according to my beliefs, cannot happen. Existence cannot become non-existence. All the things that are already non-existent are busy not existing, so...
So yes, the Universe awaits us jumping. But for the universe, the moment Humans started in Earth and the moment Humans graduated from Earth is the same one. It only seems like thousands of years to those that zoom in into that plane of existence.
Actually, to use the depiction that someone else used recently, if life is like a reel of film being played that has an ending already, and we are just experiencing one aspect of that long film, the scenario you and Pickle put forth would be one where the camera has gotten stuck in one of those malfunctions where the same clip plays over and over and the film just stops running.
Where you would be happy to sit back and live in that moment forever, I would be compelled to move on.
