Do you fear death?

[The Hairminator]

Yes, because I am sane, not a religious fanatic, and has my basic instincts intact, -I do.

no, i dont fear death. for i know i will get another life, i just wont remember this one XD
-unless im lucky and all my 'me-bits' find the same hole to crawl intoXD ( something that needs a soul, such as a newborn baby!* )
*species optional

but i wouldent want to die now XD, so much to do, so much to explore, and it'd be a bit of a waste if a fridge dropped on me now and squashed me or something silly XD

also, in my family the males usualy get in their 80's somewhere, and then happily die in their sleep XD, so no worries.

Reincarnation is a pretteh cool guy.

Being a Christian, I know I'm not supposed to be afraid of death. I know I'm supposed to think of it as a new, better life, where all that was wrong in the world will disappear.

But recently, I can't help but think, what if it's not true? Logic says that once we die, poof. Nothing. No consciousness, no life. Maybe it was that TF2 comic, with the guy that had "died" several times, saying "I've seen the other side. There is nothing there." that made me start thinking about this, but I'm not sure.

So I'm going to say, yes. I am afraid of death.

I wouldn't say I fear death itself (though I would like to live a bit longer y'know). I'd rather say that I fear what would or would not happen afterwards... that thought has always scared me =/

You have no idea... O_O

DAMN NINJAAAAAAAAA'S


Anyways, I don't fear death, but I do fear the different ways one can die.

 

[TheUnkn0wngamer]

Simply no. Sure I'd regret not doing or saying things but you either ascend to wherever and possibly see loved ones who passed away or are reincarnated as something else, which ever religion you follow, if any.

 

[Adrian3670]

Lol not to sound suicidal but I kinda look forward to it, I'm super curious to find out what happens next, and if nothing happens next then I'm no worse off for the time I spent anyway.

 

[sniperworm]

Can't say I do fear my death, I am afraid of my loved ones dying though.

 

[Kris015]

Fuck no! If anything, i fear living.

 

[Ekonk]

Yes I do! Well, I don't really fear death itself, you probably won't even know what's happening to you, I fear the not-living-anymore-and-thus-losing-everything-and-everyone-I-have-thing. But death itself is not anything to fear, it's probably the same as before you were born. It's just that you'll lose everything in the process of becoming dead. Which sucks, even though you probably won't even know it.

Also, everyone who says they aren't afraid of death is either lying or an evolutionary failure.

 

[Aggressor and Usurper]

I don't fear death, I fear an end. I believe in reincarnation and an afterlife, so, death doesn't scare me -that- much.

What I fear is nothing.

 

[elvor0]

Immensly. Partly because I'm scared of death, and partly because I'm an atheist, and although I believe there's nothing there and thus I wouldn't be "concious" to experience, nothingness scares the hell out of me.

 

[Goremocker]

Death is the first step to the rest of your existence in the after-life. Meaning I'll finally be able to see what it is, so no, no I don't fear death. I embrace it as a part of life.

 

[shadow741]

No, I don't fear it. Although, I don't want it to visit me too early.

 

[Zhukov]

I fear dying. It's potentially very painful. Besides, I have this big ol' biological imperative that keeps telling me to avoid it.

On the other hand, I don't fear being dead. In fact, I'm kinda curious about what it's like. Not in any hurry to find out though.

 

[Brightzide]

Not at all, its gonna happen eventually. So there's no point fretting over your brief period of time on this earth. Just live it to the full and see what happens , thats my motto and im sticking to it.

 

[Woodsey]

Without a doubt.

I fear I fall on the logical end of the spectrum as opposed to that of blind-hope, so for me there's no after life or rebirth or whatnot. You get one chance, and that's it.

 

[Trebort]

I'm hoping my death will be quick and painless (falling from a tall building, being hit by an 18 wheeler, you know)

In that case, no I don't fear death. I'd like death to be as far away as possible, because I want to get everything I want to do in my lifetime done.

What I truly fear is becoming a vegatable and any one of the many conditions that would turn me in to said vegatable, also being hooked up to loads of machines.

If I ever found out I had a condition like that, I would take myself off to Switzerland after wracking up so much debt on credit cards and bank loans that I could buy all my friends neat gifts or failing that (I have no passport) I'd hurl myself off the Viaduct here.

 

[Living Contradiction]

Fear my own death? Not as such. I'm of the opinion that I won't be all that worried about what comes next, whatever that might be, when the time finally gets here. If I can get a little advanced warning, I might even have a little anticipation. "Okay, bills are paid, family's been informed, friends are aware, and the cat has been given to a new owner. Right. Body, whenever you're ready."

Fear the death of others? Depends on the other person, to be perfectly honest. I know everyone dies eventually but there are some that I'd just as soon not be around to witness. At least not at close proximity. No, I won't specify why.

But do you know what truly scares me? People's reactions to my demise. I won't be there to hold them and say, "It's all right. You'll get through this. I know it hurts like a mother but that's because you loved me." And I cannot fool myself into believing that nobody will miss me when I'm gone.
