I'll be honest, I am. I'd give anything to be immortal. Immortality for me is extremely desirable, and I really hope in my life time there is a breakthrough to immortality, or at least longevity
I`m only afraid of the death of my family members and friends. I never think about myself dying, unless I`m put in a very dangerous position. Casually, the thought never crosses my mind. Kadark
I have to say I too would fear the death of anyone I loved, my mothers death was a shattering experience for me. My own death would not bother me overmuch, I just hope I don't suffer, I'd hate to die by fire or drowning. But I consider myself lucky, I've lived my life as I wanted to and not everyone gets that opportunity. I'll take everything I can get, but I won't be afraid to let it go.
I don't know if it is so much being scared to die, but I am scared of dying in certain ways. I am afraid to die of something like Cancer or any other prolonged agonizing disease. I just hope for a quick sudden death, not a lot of suffering.
Norse, can't one just fear death because of the pure and simple reason that they won't exist anymore? ...
I'm scared of the process of dying and the pain that possibly comes with it. Not afraid of death at all though, non-existence is nothing to be afraid of.
I heard dying feels good because your body releases endorphins How do you know you won't exist? The way I see it is: 1)Nonexistence 2)Reincarnation 3)Afterlife
No, I have no fear of death. I see no reason to fear death at all. I think it is the fear of death and other unknowns that have led to the creation of every religion I am aware of - placebos to address fear. The opiate of the masses, indeed.
