I don't believe in any afterlife and I'm not afraid to go back into oblivion. However there is one aspect of my death that I do fear. The pain my friends and family will go through when carrying my coffin. That I fear. My sis absolutely loves being around me, I can always cheer her up and make her laugh. It would be beyond agony for her to see me go.
So I don't fear being dead but I do fear going because of the huge gap I'd create by leaving. Also the whole dying process can be something worth fearing. As long as it isn't emotionally or physically painful.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
