RE: Fear of dying because of my views

Have you ever had a dreamless sleep? Your eyes shut, you drift off and then... nothing. But it isn't frightening or disconcerting, its soothing. Your muscles relax, you feel the last of your thoughts disappear in a haze of calm, you slip deep into a void where the thought processes that make you you simply stop and for a short while you are free. Imagine never waking up from that, imagine that the process by which you spring back to life and go on with your day just didn't happen.
Would that be so terrible?
"That is not dead which can eternal lie and with strange aeons even death may die." 
- Abdul Alhazred.
