Dil: A take on Death

I'm not afraid of dying. I don't know if it's terrible. I have never experienced my own death. It's not really comparable to any other experience in one's life, unless one speaks about 'sleep'. I don't find sleep that scary. Death is something unknown. The real question one has to ask is: should we fear the unknown? I guess I don't.

I don't fear death, but I'm still very mortal. I fear pain much more, I mean, it's something I know I despise.

Death is inevitable, get used to the idea.

One could argue that I do fear rape, even though I have never experienced rape before. But rape is a comparable experience. 1. I don't like to be forced into anything 2.I'm a prude, and I hate being touched. Especially by men. 3.It is probably painful.

>>>dilandau's philosophy

2006-10-07 [Cliché]: I'm the same way. Death is not something that has ever really frightened me.

2006-10-07 [Fizban]: it frigtens the shit out of me, because I have not come to terms of what that really means :P

2006-10-07 [Lost in Illusions]: I have the same philosophy. I dont fear death. I believe that everyone has a purpose in life, a meaning to fulfill. Only once that meaning has been fulfilled is death immanent. Until then, enjoy the ride. :)

2006-10-07 [ceridwen]: Yeah, I'm with Fiz there. I haven't come to terms with it, and I tihnk some of that has do to with my spiritual beliefs... I wasn't afraid at one point... Now It scares the living shit outta me. Weird how people change, no?

2006-10-07 [Dil*]: Interesting how the atheists don't fear death. (on this page)

2006-10-07 [Fizban]: why would they...

I would probably be fucked if theism was true anyway, I gotta remember that idea.

far to many negative outcomes possibly waiting for me at deaths door.

2006-10-07 [Kaimee]: I fear death, and I'm an atheist. I fear death every single day. Nice page you have here :)

2006-10-07 [Dil*]: oh, my brother is an atheist and he fears death very much. But he's a weak atheist. (no pun intended XD)

2006-10-07 [ceridwen]: Funny... Most strong xians I know don't fear death. They're positive they're going to heaven so it's fine with them. But when you think about it, if atheists are right and there is no heaven or hell, there's nothing to worry about anyways. So the xians are good to go. xP
