Why the FUCK does death have to be so scary. Why can't it just be something we accept and live with instead of something everyone spends a significant amount of time feeling nervous about and attempting to cope with?
>>18512759Dying is scary. Being dead is a non-experience. Just don't think about dying, much less death. It's literally your biological imperative to cling to life affirming thoughts. Otherwise you're either a tranny or a mentally unstable person (future tranny).
>>18512759> Why can't it just be something we accept It can, you just have to change your mindset.
>>18512792I think I've accepted it sometimes for like a year or more and then one night out of nowhere I'll wake up sweating with an overwhelming awareness of my own mortality and that'll set me off on a few weeks of regular anxiety spirals.
>>18512759https://annas-archive.gl/md5/be21825977ee4bcd4250026466d0ea8d>it becomes clear that, rather than analyse organic entities strictly in terms of matter and energy, which is the dream of many biologists who would reduce their science to physico-chemical explanations, the reverse might ultimately be more likely—that “..life, as a very special category of the physical universe, may in time make contributions of its own to our knowledge of matter and energy.”>As the brilliant biochemist and geneticist J. B.S. Haldane points out: As the conception of organism is a higher concrete conception than that of matter and energy, science must ultimately aim at gradually interpreting the physical world of matter and energy in terms of the biological conception of organism. This would go further than Niels Bohr’s suggestion of two different and “complementary” outlooks on the physical universe by giving biology a priority over physics; as one scientist put it, “The notions of physics will have to be enriched, and this enrichment will come from biology.”
>>18512888>Physics itself has paved the way and left an opening for such a possibility. Eddington explains that: "the distinction between ordinary matter and conscious matter is that in ordinary matter there is no correlation in the undetermined parts of the behaviour of the particles, whereas in conscious matter correlation may occur. Such correlation is looked upon as an interference with the course of nature, due to the association of consciousness with matter; in other words, it is the physical aspect of volition.">This clearly indicates that the root of consciousness is beyond what we term physical nature, that is, the space–time universe that our senses apprehend, and that consciousness is related to life as meaning is to expression. Consciousness intrudes into our space–time universe by means of organic developments, but springs from another dimension altogether, coming, as it were, from inside out. Consciousness, as such, is deathless since it belongs to a plane that is beyond life and death as well as beyond time and space—death being merely the withdrawal of consciousness from the space–time universe of phenomena that we can observe from outside; what dies and is reborn, however, is the expression of consciousness, that is, organic life.Chin up, anon. Nobody has ever truly died. People’s personalities die but your fundamental consciousness is forever here to stay. It’s only a matter of time before scientists shed their stubborn “Victorian” atheist perspective and start coming around to investigating past lives, which is entirely possible.
>>18512890I don't want to come back as some poor thirdie that has to suffer unimaginable horrors
>>18512939Could those horrors really be any worse in essence than the death-of-God nerve-wracking existential dread you’ve been suffering for a while now?
>>18512941Yes I could be born into on of those African tribes where you have to undergo ritual genital mutilation in puberty.Non-existence is preferable
>>18512939But you'll be so low-IQ that it won't affect you much. You'll basically be like an animal. If you're born an inbred jeet with a third arm, you'll be able to swim in the Ganges next to floating dead bodies and think it's great.
I have become more curious of death over time than fearful.
>>18512778This.Literally multiple faggots on /x/ in mostly religitard threads whining about how God is bad and how because of this "id rather not exist and choose nothingness". Those roaches don't realize that existence itself is created to combat nothingness, the fear of death is of course mostly biological but the reason it is so is because if we don't procreate, we cease to exist... prematurely. This is the ultimate answer to death and reason we fear it, it signifies end of existence and another... possibly eternal wait until, hopefully, it happens again.
>>18512945You are the definition of goyim. Guy trying to tell you your soul itself might crack in pieces and you worrying about a fucking bus to your 9 to 5 at MacDonalds...I would spit on your fucking face if I could..
>>18512759Why don't you want to fear it?
>>18512759Dying is scary. Death is just death. It's not the death part that should scare you, it's the process of dying/losing consciousness potentially forever, but once that process is over and done with you're not going to have anything to fear anymore. I know this all sounds pretty blunt, it's just a matter of fact. Ideally we'd all like to live longer but I don't think anyone truly wants to live forever anyways
>>18513028>soulSouls don't exist, faggot.
>>18512759>Why the FUCK does death have to be so scary. Why can't it just be something we accept and live with instead of something everyone spends a significant amount of time feeling nervous about and attempting to cope with?Because we are painfully aware of it unlike other creatures of the Earth. They might have a vague notion of what it means to go bye bye, but it is really only us humans that can ruminate and obsess about it. We know that we don't know the deepest questions of life like why are we even here, what happens when we die and not knowing makes us tremble in existential dread. So we invent fairy tales and call it truth in order to comfort us in an otherwise completely meaningless indifferent universe.
