Are you scared to die?

We are all going to die, and when we do, we go rot in the ground.  There is no afterlife, as much as we might want one...  Our conciousness will simply cease to be...  what will that be like?  Silence and blackness?  No... something even less than that...   Remember back to before you were even born?  It'll be like that.

    "how can we rule out appearing elsewhere?"

    interesting point, made me think for a while

     but my rebuttal would be we didn't exactly appear here at random.  we were created when our parents had sex and our brains developed into thoughts and consciousness..  when we die, that brain stops and with it, our consciousness is gone.

    Right you are Trixy.

    (Ecclesiastes 9:5) For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all, nor do they have any more reward, because all memory of them is forgotten.
    (Ecclesiastes 9:10) Whatever your hand finds to do, do with all your might, for there is no work nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom in the Grave, where you are going.
    (Psalm 146:4) His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish.

    There is hope of a resurrection through Jesus in the future though.
