Is it wrong (or odd) to not fear death? - Page 6

I laugh at the results of this poll because almost EVERYONE is afraid to die.
Just wait for the moment death is close to you. You'll see all these 'no' voters screaming for their lives.

For me i am not afraid to die because knowing that you are about to die simply go with the flow of life because there are sometimes in life that you will be reborn even though people never knew that i simply had that though at first when you think about it but when you know your about to die is simply nothing to be afraid of only people that have their values are the ones that are afraid into dying that is the only explanation i have for this answer.

I wouldn't say all, but MOST probably fear it. I know I don't. I look at it the same way a samurai would. Rush in to life recklessly with no fear of death. I'm a man of impulse, so for me to fear death would be like me having a fear of my own decision making. I DO slip up from time to time, but I learn from my mistakes. That's all that matters. When I die, that's it... I die. What's to be afraid of?

I don't even really dread the thought of death. It's bound to sneak up on ya eventually, so why even bother worrying about it. Yeah, most people will probably scream bloody murder when their time draws near, but I know that I won't, because I--so far--have lead a good life and have little to no regrets.

I don't fear death because it is part of life. But I will admit that I'm afraid of dying too early, though. There are many things I have to do.

Ok dudes and chicks of AO whether you are afraid or not afraid of Death, you'll die anyway. So, there is no point in fearing or not fearing Death. Death treat us all equally, it doesn't matter whether you are ugly, handsome, rich or poor, Death will embrace you with her loving arms and sharp scythe. And ultimately, taking you from this miserable life with live in.

Doesn't that mean that you fear death anyway? Having a fear of dying young/early is the same as having a fear of dying--period. If you're afraid to die, you're afraid to die. You just said it is a part of life--that it comes naturally--so, why would you contradict yourself? Either fear death as a whole, or don't fear it at all.

Even though I voted no, I rather would say that I don't care or I don't think about it.
Can't really say if I'm scared of dieing or not. There have been many close-calls to die but nothing have happened, I can really say that I've been lucky.
Sure everyone wants to live and not die, some people just don't care/think about those things.

well I dont fear death just for one reason: No one who die did wake up to tell us how it is, so i presume that death is a good thing

highteckdudu · Dec 12, 2007, 12:42 PM

Hell yeah i am! Every day i think about it, i think i'm going to die because i cant see where i am going to be 30 yrs from now, it sucks, but yeah i am scared to die, but then i try to let my wself think why? Why am i scarred, i shloudnt be, I hate suicide, its stupid. I wnt to live a long life, just to see all the wonders of the world, i like to travel and stuff, but i guess we cant stop death its just how things work, so i keep saying to my self that this is how it has to be, and i shouldnt be scarred of it because thats how it is.

*atomik_sprout* · Dec 12, 2007, 03:27 PM

I will say that when I got in my car accident with my sister (PM me if ya wanna hear all the scary details, LOL.), I wasn't afraid of MY death, more of the death of my sister. She's like my best friend in the family, so losing her would've put a dent in my personality. I was afraid of being injured badly, but dying? Naw. Although I DO tell people that the crash was God showing me that I had to make a change in my life. But that doesn't mean that I didn't look death in the face and said, "F*** you"

If you waste your time worrying about death, you will never lead a full life. Life equals death. Everything on this planet--except for rocks--dies! Other animals don't fear death, why should a human? Because we have thumbs? Pshh!!

I know that. What Im trying to say is that though many of you claim to not fear death as it approches you (which im not so certain everyone is telling the truth about it) some of those people have yet to even feel death breath down their spine, its never been that close for most of those people. I bet many of them would quickly change their mind if they knew they were to die in the next few minutes.

I dont nesscary fear death itself, but i fear of dieing at an early age, or suffering during my death
