It's funny, because I have a very strange theory, the theory that NO ONE truly fears death, in fact, everyone deep inside just wants to die
everybody is a tough guy until the moment is there

if you dont die of an accident then when your time does come you will welcome it

A friend of mine just spent the last two months in a hospice shitting himself before he passed.

Yeah, most people fear the suffering more than death. People also fear being broke as an old person more than death.

we also know that most people are weak and choose always the easy way out so that makes perfect sense. i guess that it takes a true warrior to fear death

I fear the afterlife and not knowing what awaits me. Probably comes from watching “Event Horizon” in college and he says “hell is just a word, the reality is much worse”. Then I thought about eternity and I made me think too much.

i cant stop thinking about it now, freaks me out, whoever says he doesn't fear death is either lying or has never thought it through

I don't fear death because you won't know when you are dead.

There are only 3 possibilities after death.

1) Atheist belief: nothing exists but the material world. Just like going to sleep and fading to black.

2) Heaven & Hell: Those that believe this think they are going to Heaven and their enemies are going to Hell. Pure bliss with no pain or suffering.

3) Reincarnation: dropping one body and picking up another one. No different than changing your shirt.

None of the above three options is anything to fear.

Funny, your comment reminds me of a century year old quote from physician William Osler :

"Pneumonia may well be called the friend of the aged. Taken off by it in an acute, short, not often painful illness, the old man escapes those ‘cold gradations of decay’ so distressing to himself and to his friends .”
