It's still death, I mean, I'd much rather pass away in my sleep, but it doesn't "scare" me.

I'm not scared of Death. Everyone die someone so glad that I'm not the only who will die somewhen. Sometimes its more like i want to die... I wanna know what really happens when you die and what is after you died...

There will be delicious cake.

Really
The cake is a lie...

Well... there was cake...

but some fatty ate it.

OMG i just got over endless nights of depressing thoughts of death!

#@$% it! You just made me think of it again.


If you want to know, I am atheist, and i fear death...a lot.
I mean, after death, there is nothing for me

I would even appreciate a hell instead of just nothingness.
Imagine staying in a dreamless, thoughtless sleep forever.
It would be the same as before one is born.
NOTHINGNESS!
The problem is, I just can't seem to believe in an afterlife, though i have tried so many times. No belief is logical...

Know what i mean?

One would lose all consciousness, thought, memory, and sense...

Yeah, i am going to hell if there is one.

Which IMO is better than having no afterlife...

@#$% I won't be able to sleep tonight as I try to find a logical conclusion to this!

pretty depressing jak, im also atheist, death is as death does, asking millions of question will do nothing if all that happens is we die, or if we are immortal beings and will never die.

Nonsense.
People are afraid of pain - period.
If you had your leg bitten by a dog before it probably won't make you any less afraid of being bitten by that same dog again. If anything, it will make you more afraid, now that you know how much it hurts.


PS: also personally idea of no afterlife and simply end of your existence actually appeals to me, in a way.
Not that i hate my life, it's just that i wouldn't want to live forever, be it in heaven, hell, Earth, or wherever.
Trust me, none of you would want to either if you thought about it.
It's simple fact that even very fun things eventually become boring.
GTA4 is a fun game, isn't it?
Well, imagine playing it most of the day every day for 4 years straight. I bet it won't be so fun anymore, if you'll even retain your sanity after playing it so long. While real life has much much more things to offer you, it would too, eventually, just become a boring game, had you lived for 200-300 years or so. If you had to live forever, you would surely go insane.

Yes Odlov I agree with you BUT the fact is that the number one fear of the human mind IS THE UNKNOWN.
It is scientificly proven...although you and patriotz are both right in the matter.
