The people who are not afraid of death, do you think about it much? Is it a faith in religion that stops you being afraid of death?
As an atheist I have to say death scares me ****less. The idea of time being infinite or near there, and all the possibilities that the future can bring - coupled with my belief that death is just ceasing to exist just makes me

To drunk to answer seriously so I must wait until tomorrow.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

how can one honestly say no? I am afraid to die, cause i dont now if it will be painful or sudden. I have kids that depend on me and regradless of whether it is inevitable i do not welcome it to my front door. I have witnessed alot of deaths and none of the have been easy for anyone.When you find yourself arguing with an idiot, you might want to rethink who the idiot really is.

Are you afraid to die?
I am not afraid of death, as I know where I will come in the afterlife (faith I know, but for me it feels more correct to say know). But on the other hand, I am afraid on how I will die, as there are a few bad ways to exit.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Oh, and the method of death, whilst possibly grisly/painful whatever doesn't bother near as much as the possibility of losing consciousness forever. Pretty trivial in comparison.Comment

There's nothing to fear if there is a God either, unless you've been a jackass all your life, which quite frankly, I sweat over daily.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I'm a little afraid. Sure.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.
