I'm not necessarily afraid to die, but I'd like to prolong life until I'm "sick to death of it". Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

Like someone else said here I am afraid of the pain and suffering that leads to death, and although I understand and believe the idea that "death is nothing to us", and therefore I shouldn't be afraid of dying itself, I can't help but find it unsettling that my consciousness should stop existing eternally and irreversibly. I guess I'm too used to existence...
has anyone else seen an old cheezy movie called zardoz? pretty bad, but i thought it made a decent point about living forever and how bad it would suck.
death is another part of life, so no. I cant wait till I die (doesnt mean Im gonna commit suicide), cuz hopefully, I' ll get all my questions answered, and trust me, they are about infinite.
Denial, masked as acceptance is a commonality in those who are confronted with this question. The truth is that nobody actually wants to die (unless they are clinically depressed or catatonic), because the fear of death and the avoidance of death are natural defense systems. Those who "don't fear death" would probably also go on to say that they "don't fear pain" or something equally idiotic they can defend behind their comfortable computers, but when faced with an actual threat upon their lives they would probably break down in terror.
I am afraid to die, even though I know that I have to die, and that having to die gives life value. It's just... you die and you cease to exist and there is nothing, not even an awareness of that nothing. To cease experiencing this life scares me.
Sure if you cease to exist you won't be around to care, but that is the scary part. Not existing. Even the idea of eternal damnation in hell sounds like a better bet than the cessation of all consciousness. At least in hell you would BE
No, I think I'd rather not exist than suffer for all eternity. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I agree with Hagar. Hell would be a place so bad, you can't imagine it. I'll take my chances with nonexistance, thank you.
I really can't imagine a place so bad that I'd rather not exist. :bugeye: I think I'd eventually grow to like it.
There's so may ideas as to what may happen to us when we die that its going to interesting to find out who was telling the truth. I find that death will me as interesting as life just to understand what's really there.
Not at all. I used to be terrified of it, but then realized that there is no point fearing and worrying about the inevitable. I just hope it's painless.
Cotton, one can be afraid to die and still do the task that's neccesary. Being afraid doesn't meant being completely debilitated. Fear is a natural emotion and is often a good instinct for self-preservation. Baron Max
