What are you more afraid of?

Question

A. Dying
B. Dying and there's no afterlife
C. Being forgotten by everyone

i'd have to say c. I want to make an impact in my life. How about everyone else?

Answer 1

C.

Because it means that my life was just a waste of time and world resources that others could have enjoyed better.

Answer 2

Hi i would deffinaly have to say B as i would like to believe that i would see all the people who i loved that had passed way, and that i could keep an eye one everyone and see how they are doing and let them know i am still around. I would hate it if when we die there is just blackness and everything is forgotten. All the memories you have, people you meet, places you have been, lovers, etc. You would never be forgotten by everyone, ive never forgot someone in my family that has died, and i would only want the people who care and love me to remember me which they will surely wont forget. The thing that bothers me the most is that then hurt of peolpe that we leave behind.

Answer 3

i think what is scary for me is the way i might die, I believe that when i am dead i will not be in any pain, nor concious of anything(Eccl9:5), and i will wait in the grave until the ressurection.
So because i hope that should i die i would be safe in the memory of Jehovah God, i do not worry about being forgotten!
I am definitely not scared that there will be an afterlife, my hope will be to live forever on a the paradise earth, that Jehovah God has promised (psalms37:9) and that my whole family and many, many others will be there to share in a life where:
And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”(rev 21:4).

So for me the only thing that may be worrying is if i should have a very painful death- but in the grand scheme of things- it would only be a moment in eternity!

Answer 4

I would say non. We know were going to day so dont be afraid until that moment it happens. And as for being forgotten by everyone. You will be one day. Live life to the max and smile

Answer 5

No aspect of death frightens me. If there were no afterlife, I'll never find it out, since I will cease to exist. Since my deeply-held convictions tell me there IS one and it is better than here, I'm looking forward to it. So death is just the door, nothing to be afraid of. We will all eventually be forgotten since our radius of action is small compared to the millions on earth and in history. So don't even think about c).
It's life that scares *me*.

Answer 6

I am not afraid of death. I am afraid of dying, that is, the process of dying. I am afraid that the process of dying may be painful, but I think that God, who understands that I am weak, and easily afraid, will not desert me at that last moment, but help me through the process of transition.
I am not worried that the world may forget me. I know that those who love me will not.

Answer 7

dying doesnt bother me, its how I will die that does. I know where I am going when I die and thats heaven. Another thing that bothers me is my husband dying before me. We both have a great marriage and I wished if I could I would want to die with him so neither of us is left alone.

Answer 8

none of the above friighten me. everything will eventually die and move on to a different plane of existance while the afterlife will exist for there will always be a different plane of existance and a new adventure of discovery will begin and as long as one person remembers another or as long as family ties are continued then no one will ever cease to be remembered.

Answer 9

I am not afraid of dying. I am not going to do so while there is still work to be done for God though.

Answer 10

I guess "C". I'm not too bothered about dying (its coming to us all!), though I don't want to die in pain. As for option "B" -well, if I'm dead, how do I know if there's an afterlife or not?!

Which leaves me with "C", for much the same reason as yourself!
