OR, Do you agree that death is not an event to be experienced in life?<br /> I believe our souls live on, long after our bodies die. I am a believer in God and Heaven. I think that not seeing death as an "end" would help some people embrace the fact that death is part of life, and not something to be feared. If immortality was truly an experience for the human body, what would be the point of life? We are put here for a reason... each of us having our own path, but our souls are eternal. I believe deep down, every part of our human nature has a fear of dying due to the fact that we want to continue to be in control of our lives. I do believe once we finish our jobs here on Earth, our souls are free, no longer bound by the confines of "body" and ideas like "fear", to live on into oblivion.Sophie Raffo #6noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2619743764213415433.post-73699000918160553752016-02-09T12:32:49.641-06:002016-02-09T12:32:49.641-06:008: I don't fear death because I feel like ther...8: I don't fear death because I feel like there is something after it and in my faith of Christianity I know there is an afterlife and it is joyful.

When considering the phrase, "...6 Brock Francis<br />When considering the phrase, "Don't believe everything you think," my opinion is that it is good advice. My brain comes up with hundreds of thoughts per day. Some of them can be the most ridicules thing ever, and in critical situations, I will naturally think the worst possible outcome is true. One should only believe what he or she can support with reason. This reasoning process should depict what each individual person believes, but the catch is, everyone reasons in different manners which separates each individual person.

I do fear dying. I wish I didn't. The only aspect of death that makes me fear it is what happens after. I agree with the idea that death is not an event that should be experienced in life and I shouldn't waste time worrying about it, but at the same time I can't help but wonder. I would like to believe that there is an eternal life after death but sometimes I think the possibility of it is unreal. I find it much easier to believe that death is like a long dreamless nap that you never wake from. If the latter is true then it scares me that one day I am here making my impact on the world and next I'm gone. I don't want to worry about it but it always creeps into my mind when I least aspect it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05450326785820727276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2619743764213415433.post-44757488785771185092015-09-21T19:39:22.581-05:002015-09-21T19:39:22.581-05:00(#8) In response to DQ3, I do not fear death.

My reasoning behind this would be the fact that since death is inevitable and surely comes to everyone; it should not be a driving force/reason to live in fear. Instead one should enjoy his/her life without fear of the future. I would also agree that death is not something that can be experienced in the physical sense with full consciousness (I.E: you must be in the "after" life to recollect you "experience" if that makes any sense. . . ).

She says that she believes in an afterlife but has been questioning some things lately that she has grown up believing. <br /><br />Elsbeth discussed how she didn't fear death. She contemplated on the thought of the afterlife and said that she chooses to believe that there is something better out there. She also comment about how we are just a small speck in the universe.<br /><br />I talked about how I grew up religious and had a lot of fear around my own death due to the concept of heaven and hell. I also talked about how as my beliefs changed, the fear of death lifted and that I am unsure of my stance on the afterlife, but I like to believe we are all interconnected and that some good comes after.<br /><br />We all agreed that when you experience the death of a loved one at a young age, it can change your perception on the afterlife. We also all agreed that the idea of hell was detrimental and that we chose not to believe in it or think about it.
