What do I mean with this? Those who are afraid of dying but smoke and drink alcoholic drinks are... stupid!

And not just smoking and drinking, don't forget about that.

By the way, do you guys know that it takes 10 years for the toxic gases from cigarretes to dissapear from your lungs?

Eyes and Pies? :cofused:

Anyway, if you don't know, alcahool damages your liver and your brain, killing hundreds of brain cells, lowering your reactions to touch, narrows down youor vision, etc... These are just some of the problems that alcahool brings you. Think about it Zeon

And no, I wouldn't smoke. We're all smokers anyway. Passive smokers, but smokers notheless.

Re: are you afraid of death???

Heh, in life there's only one thing you HAVE to do:

Dying.

And well, I don't really fear death a lot, although thinking too much about it doesn't help anything or anyone.

I'm actually rather curious what will happen after passing way. Is there after-life, is there another existence, will we exist?

So I haven't stopped thinking about it, of course, it's a natural thing to be doing, but fearing it? Not so much anymore, since life has to many good things to offer and enjoy, instead of neglecting it due to what will happen AFTER this life. =)

Re: are you afraid of death???

At times, i was not afraid of death, for i gladly welcomed it. I've wanted to die numerous times, so i never thought about being scared of it.

Obviously I was having second thoughts; I'm still here today.

When I think about it now, I just wonder where we go when we die, if we even go anywhere. The thought of that now frightens me more, once I had seriously thought about it.

Sometimes I'm still not sure, but those are my current thoughts...

Re: are you afraid of death???

mmmmm thts cool. umm yer the alcohol damaging brain cells.....bla bla bla......i no....if accept tht.....but like i said it isnt tht major a thing for me. i dont heavily drink so its not so bad. and THERES TWO THINGS TO BE GUARENTEED IN LIFE!!!

DEATH AND TAXES!!!! lol

but ummm yer.....we should all take a moment to consider about where you would want to go when you die (into the world of Final fantasy would be cooll ) where would you most wanna go?

id personally go to a place of tranquility and peace where i can spend eternity in rest with those i love. i dont wanna die......i dont want to make people cry at my funerial......i wanna see a smile on the faces of my loved ones. the only thing i live for in this world is the chance to make people happy if i cant do tht then i dont deserve the love of others...and i would willing let death come to my door....id not be afraid anymore....but becoz of my passion for creating joy i keep creeping through life.......i wont die.....ill dodge death for as long as i can. Thts the main reason i fear death. becoz i fear tht my loce for others will be lost. i enjoy life. even at the times tht most would break down and cry in agony.....i always have a smile on my face. (the people who no me can comfirm tho none are really on here lol) but yer....thts why i fear death...the real reason

Re: are you afraid of death???

I'm not scared of death simply because I'm not going to smoke or drink a lot when I'm eventually old enough to be able to do either. Sure, I'll drink but not excessively. This guarantees that'll I'll live as long as I'm able to, unless of course; I get a disease.
I would hate the fact of living forever though because eventually you just want it to end, which is why if I had a set of wishes; living forever would be the last thing I'd wish for.
Like richboy said: "Everyone has to die sometime."

Re: are you afraid of death???

I just hope after death you actually go to some sort of "Paradise".
It'll be kinda stupid if it all just goes black, but I really don't know whether to believe religion or not anymore. =/

Re: are you afraid of death???

religon is a high reason for death. most suicides happen in the name of religon (suicide bombing self sacrificing to gods etc) and most wars have some for of religous aspect. so i just choose to ignore the beliefs of religons and leave each to his own. believe what ever you like BUT JUST DONT THINK I WILL lol

Re: are you afraid of death???

I don't believe in Religion anyway. =P
I just don't understand that if Religion is true then why are so many people getting left behind (Spirits)? Your also right in saying Religion is the cause for most deaths, infact, I'd say it's the cause for both WW's and 65% of most deaths.

It is the main reason throughout the ages that human beings have fought each other.
