Why are people afraid of death?

I'd say that because of religious teachings all about going to hell, living in a pergatory world, being tortured while there forever. Those types of teachings, if you don't go along with the religions, will put a scare in the youngsters anytime. If people were taught that dying is just a part of living, actually the price we all pay in order to be alive, there wouldn't be as much fear as there is.

What interests me is what the fuck are we supposed to be doing here while we are alive? Everyone has their own ideas but as yet there really isn't any one real meaning to life itself. Just think in just 50 years no one will ever remember who you were or what you did unless it was something really worthwhile or something really bad. link here


Fear of death will likely cost their tens, even hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of their lifetime, let alone the cost to health and quality of life. link here
