(OP) User ID: 743297 United States 11/02/2009 07:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've honestly never understood why so many people are scared of dying...unless it's the process of dying -- pain, or what not, which scares them. But, being dead is either one of two things: a) you're simply worm food or b) there's some kind of wonderful after-life. I suppose if you believe in hell, it would suck...but does anyone really believe in that still?

Anonymous Coward User ID: 793418 United States 11/02/2009 07:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I remember being so afraid of death I'd be unable to breath, just thinking about it, the unknown of it. But that was when I hadn't learned anything about the afterlife and just had the christian view of it, which is so uncertain and unknown. It is mostly fear of the unknown, and the inevitability of heading into something UNKNOWN that will last FOREVER and FOREVER that scares people. I'd better stop thinking about it actually. |

If I die and 'live on' some how, well that will be awesome. Even if it is hell or whatever. At least Im still conscious. As long as Im conscious there will be a chance. A chance to escape, or rage against the machine, or whatever. Apology in advance for killin your thread. |

Good point. It's the same as when you sleep at night, for say, 8 hours. You close your eyes, fall asleep, and if you sleep straight through, you open your eyes after 8 hrs as if it were a milisecond. so, no one should be afraid of being gone 'forever'..first of all, what is forever? I mean, who really knows if there is such a thing? And, even if you're dead for a billion years or 1 minute, it will still "feel" like a blink in time.

User ID: 656642 United States 11/02/2009 07:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't want to die because of my children and my husband; I want to be there to see my children graduate from high school, graduate from college, graduate from medical school. I want to cry at their wedding and be there when their children are born. I want to share all these memories with my husband, I want to grow old with him. But when I do go, I believe it will be an adventure, just one that I can wait to experience.
