April 20, 200719 yr For the love of God... Okay, guys, everyone fears death, so would ya'll stop acting tough. We all fear it to an extent, especially with the ideas of what'll happen to oneself after they die. It may be more subconscious than conscious fear, but it's still fear. Honestly, I'd love to see how all the "I don't fear death people" on this thread would react when someone has a gun to their head. Just because I can accept dying tomorrow and don't believe in Heaven and Hell doesn't mean I don't fear it at least slightly. I control this fear to the extent that it doesn't affect my daily life in any way at all, but that fear's still there in the back of my head. And to clarify if anyone didn't understand, when I say "fearing death" I'm talking more about "fearing the afterlife" than the actual process of dying, unless it's extremely painful o_O. lol everyone fears pain...that doesn't mean you fear death, i seriously dont care if i die tomorrow though i would rather live longer..i know it will happen one day so theres no point in being afraid...and plus you dont know what death is like until you actually experience it since dead men dont tell us what its like to be dead...therefore no reason to be afraid, just you must enjoy what you have atm: life

Sorry, it just seems like there's a lot of macho crap on this thread -.- .

April 20, 200719 yr if your ready to die then your a freak who doesnt value the gift of life so no Really? I live life fully every day, and I consider myself ready to die. Someone once said "Time is a predator that stalks you all your life. You can try to evade it with medicines or technology, but one day it will pounce in for the kill." I would rather enjoy my life than spend the entirety of it worrying about death. And to the question if I would rather die to save someone than flee and live? I would much rather die on my feet than live on my knees. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley

April 20, 200719 yr No, of course not, but I'm not afraid of it. Main Goal; To have all skills 50+ My avatar is: The Shins- Oh Inverted World
April 20, 200719 yr Its easy to say you would die for someone but if you were in that situation where its your life or theres could you make that sacrifice? Im not ready to die, im scared of death, seen to many people die young for my liking.
April 20, 200719 yr Think we should start another thread about why, or why you're not afraid of death? Or we could carry on in this, it's really a pretty sensible answer for most people. Main Goal; To have all skills 50+ My avatar is: The Shins- Oh Inverted World
April 20, 200719 yr it depends on who im dieing for like for my wife, yes but if its the bully that beat me up in fifth grade or the guy that robbed the bank and shot my dad then no

Sorry, it just seems like there's a lot of macho crap on this thread -.- . oh how confused you are... personally i have no fear of being dead, you know why? i really wont care because guess what ill be dead, lying there 6 foot under doesnt scare me, at all, how i die scares the [cabbage] out of me. One its going to be an untolerable pain, and i am going to hurt my loved ones, that scares me. I do not fear the unknown, imagine you never knew about heaven or hell, once your dead that a full stop, like reaching the edge of the universe. The simple thing is its too mind boggiling to think of the unknown, so i believe ignorance is bliss. I dont care so im happy enought to die.
April 20, 200719 yr ...I do not fear the unknown... :XD: Stop trying to deny human nature, you're just lying to yourself. Uh huh, everyone here has absolutely no fear of the unknown whatsoever, thanks for the info. Sorry, it just seems like there's a lot of macho crap on this thread -.- . take it as you will, but i still beleive im ready to die...of course to know the true answer to this question i need someone to point a gun at my head with the intention to kill until then don't say im acting macho, since we're online and theres no point to that That wasn't directly speaking to you when I said that :| . Me, I'm ready to die too, but just like you I don't know how I'd react if I had a gun at my head. I guess I'll be technical- I fear what comes after death.

April 21, 200719 yr Answer to topic: No I'm not ready to die, there's too much I still want to do in life. And why bother being afraid of death? It's going to happen anyway, you might as well just live you life before it does.
April 21, 200719 yr I am afraid of the dying process, although I don't know why, since I have almost died twice, been through the so called tunnels and all that. No tunnels btw and dying is actually rather nice if you don't try the violent version. I don't know hows that. Not afraid of death itself though. I don't care what comes after, if anything. Sometimes I even wish it was nothing. Forever long rest without my mind to take part in it or anything really. I don't know if I would die for someone else. For my child, probably I would. I think most moms would. Evolution has made mothers extremely protective because natural way of life is still that kids live longer. That was the short version, I could write you 20 paragraphs of this but I doubt that anyone reads my post as it is now so no point really. Yeshh, existence or nonexistence. The forever lasting question of a young mind.
April 21, 200719 yr im not terrfied of death, ive known a fair share of ppl that have died who were quite close to me + im gonna join the raf soon as a fire fighter or regiment gunner cant wait ;)
April 21, 200719 yr Will you? Will you all really accept your death? We are all too young to know the first thing about life, even less death. None of us are ready, none of us know what's it about, how, why... You can say whatever you may, but if you should be dying tomorrow, you won't be ready. There is no way for that. You will never be ready to die unless you commit suicide in a mentally clear state. And that, my friends, is a rare sight.
April 22, 200719 yr I'm ready to die seriously. I'm gonna die sooner or later so why wait? It's gonna happen no matter what! In Soviet Russia, Veltia's signature stares at YOU!!The Gielinor Tribune|Blog|The Twax Story
