My Mind is A Battlefield (In a Good Way)

I have had massive amounts of inspiration lately, and multiple ideas. I've been wanting to write a book for pretty much forever. I had 14 chapters written for one book before my computer crashed and it got lost, and now I want to write another one.
Alright, if you read my initial blurb, you know that I want to write book. I have three main ideas. After you read them, please comment and tel me which one you like the best, why you like it best, and if you have any suggestions for how to improve the idea. All comments will be taken into consideration.

1. (My Personal Favorite) Is set in the future, about 2024, where a child genius known only as Sly is the leader of a group of kids who devote their lives to building tools to help kids avoid trouble. Everything from false hall passes to Robot parents for teacher conferences to signature replicators for permission slips and failed tests. They all go to the same school, but ship their supplies throughout the continental US. Eventually, one teacher notices the lack of punishment on kids, but the increasing amount of trouble being caused around the US, and decides to investigate.

2. Is about a 16 year old who has never really belonged. He made up a whole existence for himself, and has never gone to school. He knows nothing except that his father was an Operation Desert Storm war hero in the U.S. Army. He uses his connections on the street to forge a birth certificate and other necessary paperwork saying he's 18, then enlists in the Army. He immediately is the top of his class both physically and mentally, and within a few months is assigned to Iraq, only to find out something terrible about his father and his family history.

3. A group of demons decide to try and retake Heaven, because their tired of both Satan's rantings and pushing them around, and of God and his infinitre preaching. That's all I really have for this one :-p

    Well first of all I'm going to say if you Do write a book you HAVE to let me fix the grammar for you, cause you're killing me.

    Number one is really cool, but like I said reminds me a lot of other books out there. Also, it would be a lot harder to write than you may realize; even fantasy should make sense, so things would need to fall in to place. Like for instance, if he's so genius, he should make some sort of cheating system or machine, instead of signature replicators for failed tests.

    And number two. What to say about number two. If I had papers saying I'm eighteen, fuck the army I'm going crazy. But yeah. I can't connect with this one, cause I just can't see how anyone would be so desperate to join. You know most people wanna live their life before they're killed or maimed.....
    But that's a rant for another time

    Three's my favorite, at least I like the idea the best. But it would probably be a biased and controversial book, cause either all the believers in god or all the non-believers in god would be complaining about how it's insulting them. Or both, if you wrote it in the way where neither side was the "protagonist" side. So... This could go well, or might not at all.

    Good ideas. Good luck with your story, whichever you'll choose (which'll be number one cause you're not one to change your mind )
