Death?
Afraid to die?
No!
Never!!!

I have never been afraid of death, though that doesn’t imply that I live a carefree life.

Death is the most certain reality of every living organism.

It’s certain I’m gonna die one day. So why should I live the few years I have in the fear of something that will eventually happen?

Rich or poor
Good or bad

It is a prerequisite to die!

Hmmm , its the meaningless of life makes each of your answers differ for one question... Impressive really.

I am not but I am only worried about the circumstances that will lead to it..

I don't need a painful death.
I don't need a stressful death(wouldn't want a situation where I will have to be a burden to others).Infact, if at all i came up with a terminal illness and the medical practitioners and family are against the route of euthanasia, i must find a way to end it one way or the other..
I want a peaceful death where I can sleep and won't wake up again

Honestly, this universe isn't giving me joy again

I think it because I'm open minded to pain and suffering. I've had my fair share of pain, agony, grief and suffering to know that death is an expensive gift.

The uncertainty of what happens after death is the cause of fear in people

Afraid to die maybe because i dont know what to expect after death. Religon and science very hard to follow together its all toying with my sanity.

WON'T BE THE FIRST, WON'T BE THE LAST. IT'S INEVITABLE AND I'M AWARE OF THE NEXT DESTINATION FOR ME AND ALL OF YOU - NOWHERE.
I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO WHILE LIVING INSTEAD OF WASTE MY TIME FEARING THE THINGS THAT I CANNOT CONTROL.

PS: THERE'S NOTHING INTERESTING IN LIVING ANYWAY.

because you have known what you shouldn't , so to get excited by the universe would be rare , yes the frequent happiness we feel when we get paid our salaries , smoke that joint , take that gin , but at the end we still on a rock ....... Meaninglessly possessing consciousness .....been aware of our being .... What we know ....... (Mutters)Fear of the unknown DEATH ....hmmm I see where the fear sets In

Our subcouncsious beign cannot feel pain or anything really , so the imagination of subconscious being cannot be perceived , neither should or can emotions as they are physical biological mechanisms

The unknown nature of experiencing death, that's the source of my fear. Not the concept of death itself which is a final rest to the stress of life.

And there's the horrifying lovecraftian imagery of death which was drummed into us as kids by religion which didn't help either. I'm not sure if there's anyone here that remembers or knows about one Muslim film from the 2000s that was intended to scared people/children into observing their prayers called Hassan. It follows the story of a rebellious boy by the name of Hassan as he dies and his soul is tormented after death in an Islamic framing.
I'm sure the me of right now can watch and possibly laugh parts of it, but to a generation of Muslims that film was pretty traumatizing.

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee. Mighty and dreadful, for thou are not so;
For thou are nothing but the end of the flesh.
There is no night without a dawning
No winter without a spring, for on the last day the righteous shall rise again.

I have no heart,
I feel no love.
Nor fear,
Nor joy,
Nor sorrow.
I am hollow
And I will live forever.

There is no existence after death.... death is final, you are insignificant for the universe to care ... If one other sperm had fertilized the egg you won't even exist. We are all random creatures like birds and bees born at a time and die at a time. We only developed an ego and then we were brainwashed to that society is in charge from here on out. And hence we take in the programming and begin to exhibit what we learnt .... never truly living this short painful meaningless existence.

believe me , only a living brain with neurones can feel pain . you will need a beating heart , electricity impulses.... In hell or in limbo we will not be having a beating heart . or a fixed brain(that requires thinking /knowledge /feeling pain), . it is just not possible to perceive pain when you're dead and your physical body is here .

Simply because when I finally die, I won't even know I am dead, the only thing I don't want is a slow painful death. In death lies peace from the troubles we are saddled with on earth...

Why would I be afraid of death?

When I am, there will be no death

and when there is death, I will be no more

so, why would I be afraid of death?
