Why are humans afraid of death?

Why fear something that you were born to do?

People also have an preconcious desire to end suffering by dying according to psychology literature I've read. As suffering increases the desire to die increases -- hence an abundant supply of suicide bombers in the middle east.

the reason is not many of mankind know what life is.


To comprehend 'what is life'............. is the single greatest gift, any human being can EVER be given.

That combining knowledge is the last chapter (the revealing) to mankind.

The Understanding of LIFE!

"Let him who hath understanding recognize the number' (of the bringer of truth)

the good guy removes the religions forever and it comes from combining the comprehension of reality with the truth of life.

It's a 'light' thing!

I've given & been given many things yet no 1 gave me life.

 

yep.... mom and pops....

you represent them: so anything you do bad; is 'dishonoring your mom and pop'..........

and if you knew what life is, perhaps watch the 2LoT, then if you want to live longer; best go make a baby!

Give life!

In order for anything to be given to me, I must be alive. I was not given life.

I represent no 1 but myself.

Can someone translate this???

 

After death the body is buried in the ground and the soul grows into flora: eternal suffering without hope of release...

 

Because it usually hurts a lot.

 

Not everyone is afraid of death. Some people worry about the fate of those they leave behind. Some people welcome it.

 

I think the fear of death should be separated from the fear of dying.

 

yet for some reason ambulances being mobilized in your immediate vicinity might be a cause of concern ....
:scratchin:

(IOW you apparently have something that isn't given but can be taken away)

 

i don't. what's ur explanation.

 

Wow. A juvenile, snarky comment. The kind of discourse we've come to expect from you over the years.

This is an equivocation fallacy (fallacies are what we've come to expect as well). "taken away" in the case of death doesn't equivocate to the act of taking away that is synonymous with removing a toy from a child's hand. No one or thing "takes" a life away. One can cause a death (just as one can "cause" a life by fucking), but life isn't an object or thing that can be "given" or "taken" in the sense you're applying.

That this is an equivocation is something I think you're probably aware of, therefore you're being deliberately deceptive. Also to be expected from you over the years. You're subtle, but a liar all the same.

 

sure
if you take the time to read other posts in the thread you can find these points already brought up and also how stranger disagrees with them

hehe

I guess to a greater or lesser extent we all give opportunity to display predictable behaviour from time to time

 

Is it possible to have a thread 95% about humans' fear of nonexistence?
