Dean,
I can empathise since I wrestled with this some years ago. As with me, you seem to accept the inevitable, but find the taste unappealing. I don't have a prescription to help; only to share the great relief when I not only accepted the inevitable, but embraced its consequence...truly living and not simply avoiding death.
My mortality requires me to value how I spend my time; I only have so much of it. I also concluded that living forever would become a drag. Christopher Hitchens put it best by describing eternal existence in a place like heaven as the party that you were never allowed to leave.
I still don't like contemplating events that I will fail to experience after I'm gone, but I have no control over that. The best I can do is create the memories that will make me bow out with a smile.
What's vile is an adult parading the idea of eternal bliss in exchange for a life of subservient ass kissing of those that are the self annointed guardians of the path to the aforementioned eternal bliss. This becomes even more disgusting when you have yet to provide any proof of your claims and assume we haven't heard this tripe before.
Kiss Hank's ass.
While you're at it, go fuck yourself with a thorny crown. Vile enough for you?
