[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm kind of a humanist raised in a religious family and among religious people. I don't actually think any of us are in a better situation  regarding the anxiety of death because of our beliefs or lack thereof. Someone can be a believer of anything religious and still have fear and anxiety over death because whatever narrative that is adopted doesn't mean the person really really believes it.No one knows what happens after death.No one...even if they say they do. I find religion to be more an internal socialized thing. [b]Even if you say you don't believe, some stuff is still there waaaay deep inside,[/b]but even that does not take away the fear. People don't want to die. They don't want to leave what they know,the people they love, the world that they see.

Everyone lives and everyone dies. There are no other options. If it is that natural, how bad could it be? [/quote]

YOu really can't make that generalization about everyone, though, can you?  I know people who naturally don't believe -- didn't believe as children, although they were taught to believe by their parents and society.[/quote]
