I have been thinking a lot about religion(s), death and the afterlife lately. I have never been the religious type nor have I believed in life after death. However lately I have been wondering what will happen after this life is over.
I suppose that I getting to that point in life were I realized that I am no longer young and invincible. Yet I still do silly things that will most likely get myself killed and I have started to question myself of why I do these things and if I am afraid of death?
I suppose my question is “Are you afraid of death” and if not is it because you believe in an afterlife? And do religious beliefs effect your view on death?
http://www.au.org/site/PageServer?pagename...christiannationI don't believe in life after death yet I am not afraid of death. I mean death is as natural as being born.
Death is something that no one should be afraid of or fear.
Another copy of the recent topics around! But Heck, doesnt bother me any!
I am not that religious therefore I have no real reason to care. I am not afraid of death, I am afraid of the pain in death, but its only for a couple seconds then your dead so you dont feel it. I dont believe anything occurs after death, your just sleeping (forever!)
Basically all that we are is just moving blood and signals getting sent back and fourth in our brain. There isn't anything magical to it. You die, all the "gears" stops moving... why should anything else happen? All death means is that you don't work anymore. If I smash up my computer into a million pieces so I can't rebuild it.. it's dead....does it go somewhere? It is the same thing.
The only reason why I am not afraid of death, is you have to accept everything dies. Its natrual, so its going to happen. Well the truth is everyone is actually afraid of death in some way or another. I mean Death is someplace dark, and people are always afraid of the dark, live your life with honor, and how you want to. Make the best out of your life then you have nothing to be afraid of death. Live each day as if there is no tommorow. Its hard but just keep that in mind every week or so.
I am not afraid of death, I wait in my chair while people die out in war, I knoe the heavan as they call it is our life after.
I am afraid of Deathawk.
Okay that was lame.. Anyway..
Yeah, I'm afraid of death, because I have a feeling if I die it's going to be pretty painful, and I don't really like pain. And I don't really want to die either =\
I'm only afraid of dying before I can accomplish what I intend to do. Other than that, I dun really care.
I am not afraid of death, I might be afraid of the way I die once it starts occuring, but I don't fear death itself.
1. I believe in an afterlife like you mentioned, but if it doesn't exist it doesn't matter since you would probably just vanish
2. yes they do, and they also help me with my view on life
The way I see it, death shouldn't be feared, the only things you should fear is not leaving a mark for yourself,
and not knowing that you helped someone in your lifetime.
I've never really known why, but I feel like it's my duty to help out the human race before I die somehow...

If I will die thinking that this life wasn't useless, I will not be afraid of leaving this world. Death is natural.
I'm afraid of Death, because I'm afraid of how I'll die or what will happen after I die. Will there be an afterlife? Will I just be asleep forever? Stop working, and know nothing? It's unexplainable. Inevitable. You can't think, feel, smell, or whatever. You won't be able to see blackness, nor any color, which is techinally impossible because if there aren't any colors reflecting off any surface, you'll just see black. It's weird...really weird.
I would say that I am afraid of dieing, since I am way too young to die.
So far, nearly every one of you should be afraid of death. Why? Cuz from what you guys posted your going to hell. If you all died you'd regret most of your life, forever.
I'm afraid of death, why? Because im not certain that im going to heaven, i believe yes, but im not sure that heaven is where im going...
I am because i don't know where i'm going. That is what religion is for i think, but sometimes when you get older it all seems to serreal. I just want to live life
.
as long as i do everything i want to do before i die....and its not being axemurdered
Then no, im not afraid of death
If I died right now my only regret would be not being able to do as many drugs as I wished. There's still much out there I would like to experience. But, if I died I guess I wouldn't care because I'd be dead.
hell no i aint scared of dieing,hell come kill me right now, if i saw a kidnapper id beat the crap outta him, shove his hand up his own ass, make him bleed his own blood
Na i am not ____ ,i just dont want to _____
fill in the blanks
JK
I believe there is a Heaven, I believe there is a Hell
If I go to Hell i will beatbox satan
If I go to Heaven I will hopefully live a peacefull life.
Answere: no im not afraid of dying
I actually died 5 years ago but the grim reaper never worked up the courage to tell me.
So no i dont fear death....death fears me.
I've said this many times before in previous topics, but I'll say it again.
I'm not afraid of death. I am however, afraid of the pain that might accompany the process of dying, such as those of slow painful deaths.

same.
The only thing im afraid of is if sc is in heaven or not
Everyone knows that Im going to heaven Heaven is definately going to have something better than sc
Oh and also, I absolutely hate this feeling you get when you
know that you only have a few hours/days left before you die. Like if you're capture by some badguys or something and a couple days later they are going to kill you. During that time, I would feel excruciatingly uncomfortable; knowing that these last few breaths that I breathe are going to be the last, and realizing how much of life you have missed and not yet seen and will never see again. If I'm going to die, I rather that I do not expect death; that I be caught by surprise.
no i dont because it was a fun ride while it lasted and all good things have to end
even tho i dont fear it i still dont want it to happen because im kind of only 14
I fear not knowing what people will do with me when I die. (Will they be sad over me, will I have made an impact, will it be a good fneral, etc.)
