im not afraid of death, only being murdered. i believe in the afterlife and no one can change my belief, i am certain there is an afterlife.


now i have a few questions, can someone define the big bang and the universe in their own words for me?
Awww look at the size of this package itll take forever to deliver, or we could dump it in a sewer and say we delivered it! No, thats to much work, lets burn it and say we dumped it in a sewer.

I am afraid of death because it brings an end to everything and there is no way to know what comes after death. Heaven? Nothing at all, like before we were conceived? It's just very hard to imagine the nothingness that will be there when we can't be conscious anymore. Then again, reality itself seems torturous. Having a consciousness that lives on forever, whether through immortality or in the afterlife, will eventually be so boring, because it'll last an eternity. I don't know if existing forever(forever is an incomprehensible concept, like infinity) in Heaven is really better than simply not existing, which is equally incomprehensible, yet I know it's possible because of sleeping/going unconscious. We don't feel the unconscious times in our lives because we just skip the time and go straight to when we are next conscious, but what happens if we never be conscious? I suppose the theories about how everything will happen given enough time(monkeys writing shakespeare) would say that we could eventually regain consciousness by coming back to life somehow in like 10^120938 years, and we would just wake up and feel like we just died yesterday. But what would we feel if we never woke up again, and how could whatever decides our consciousness know the future that we'll never wake up, not in a 10^googol years?

I say we shouldn't think about death because the above paragraph creeps me out.

I'm afraid to die because I don't know if I can still go on TL.net after I die
If I die, I don't know if I can still do the things I love. That's why I don't want to die. Maybe not AFRAID. =/

note to self: go start doing your homework baka
edit: yessir!

to others: I'll be inactive for the next couple of weeks. exam time

I do not deny death. I am resigned. I have no mitigating beliefs to console me in my final moment. I will face my demise alone as all of us will do. I also know that when it comes, I will be no more. I just hope that destiny unfolds in such a way, that when I make my exit from our reality, I will be in a state of grace. That I know. Nostalgia, sadness, anger maybe but there will be no fear. That I know.

I don't wanna die cuz I'm skeptical there is anything afterwards, and I want to enjoy life rather than be dead which is not pain, or joy but just nothingness.

Death is the only reason I envy religious ppl. (don't talk about getting burned in hell, I mean the confidence and peace you gain when you know you won't just fade away when you die). on the other hand I would be really scared if we were to live forever, so thats somewhat a dilemma: not wanting to die and at the same moment not wanting to live forever. One thing I'm absolutely certain of is that scientists will be able to expand our span of live tremendously. There is no real biological reason why our organism ages as long until it dies. At least no reason that can't be fixed and believe me, we can't even imagine what will be possible scientific wise in 100 years. The process of gaining knowledge is accelerating every year and in my eyes it is inevitable that these kind of drugs / genetical manupulations will come.

Its easy for me to say, sitting at a computer with death a far-away idea, that i am not afraid to die. Just simply that i dont want to. Life is too good to want it to end.

But if the idea of death became a looming reality <eg got cancer> Im not sure if my answer would be the same. Maybe then I would be afraid.

Looking at it logically, death is the only certainty in our existence and fearing the inevitable does seem rather pointless. Of course fearing anything could be considered rather pointless.


fearing death is the same as fearing venomous snakes, fear of heights, fear of dying in boiling water, fear of being murdered, etc. etc.

how come people don't seem to understand that they are one and the same?


While being afraid of a truck driving straight towards you and being afraid of death might be considered the same, fearing death itself I'd say is different.

If your point was that fearing things isn't pointless, well.. You fear venomous snakes, you do some silly panicked move, you scare the snake, get bit and die. You fear heights, you get dizzy, you fall and die. You fear being murdered and waste your time being afraid instead of hitting the bum with the knife with a baseball bat. You fear dying in boiling water, raw eggs will kill you.

Not that I'll be quoted for saying fear isn't good, it is. It's a damn good game and saves your life.
But fearing random stuff that can potentially kill you=nothx

Why would you waste your time being afraid of something you really have no control over?

But really...I can't see many people our age going around actually being afraid to die, or giving it much thought alltogether. It's one of those things that we know will happen one day or another, and while being aware of that fact may help you enjoy the things you do more or make you do changes to your life to make sure you are as happy as possible, being afraid of it seems quite useless since we can't really do anything about it.

I don't refute that it's a useless fear. I only restate that fear itself isn't controllable. It can be handled and it can be fought against, but no matter what, if you fear something then the fear will remain there, even if not constantly.

I've been struggling with the issue since I was five. XP Obviously that isn't normal, but fear is fear. While it may be a more "valid" fear at an older age, it isn't a prerequisite. I don't let it control my life, but that doesn't mean I can stop being afraid of it.
Think. :)

I couldn't care less about how I die, it means nothing since in the end of that experience, I will die, so that pain will have ment nothing.

I am though, like most here, afraid of what happens after we die, since it's a human thing to be afraid of what you do not know,

To continue with this topic, but with another question:

If you could chose to know what happens when you die, would you chose to know, or would you chose to carry on with yoru life, not knowing what happens when you die?

Explain your choice aswell

I would chose to not know what happens, since there are certain "answers" that I don't think my brain would be able to handle very well.
