RE: Death
April 4, 2009 at 1:23 am
Exactly. Why should anyone fear death? Perhaps the pain frightens some people, alongside the fact that they don't know what's after death.

I find death fascinating and why it has such a strong hold on most people. However I think it's interesting to point out that humans are unique in their fear of death and the amount of energy we put into avoiding it or making it sound all warm and fuzzy. Animals don't fear death at all, seeing as they have no religions set up to comfort them in times of death Wink
