Why are believers still afraid of death?

RE: Why are believers still afraid of death?
(February 9, 2018 at 8:33 am)Die Atheistin Wrote: If they think there is an afterlife then why do they fear death? In the case of christians, many of them believe in Hell, so this might explain it. But why do they still cry if a loved one dies who respected all the christian rules in their lifetime?

I find the first question a bit childish and the second one completely facetious. It doesn't matter who you are or what you believe in unless you are really depressed or reallllllly laid back you will not -want- to die. I think there is even a country song about it lol "Lord I want to go to heaven but I don't want to go tonight." The idea of heaven is nice for a 'one day' kind of thing but not to willingly want to go right away.

As for crying, seriously what kind of question is this? Have you never cried over someone leaving before? You've never had a friend move away and think you won't ever see them again? Do you not miss a single person that has passed through your life?
“What screws us up the most in life is the picture in our head of what it's supposed to be.”

Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you."
