What do you think that Acts 24: 15 means? It tells me that all of the dead ones will be resurrected. Both the righteous and the unrighteous... so no one bar none should fear death, where they are conscious of nothing at all (Ecclesiastes 9: 5, 10) and what do you think Ezekiel 18: 4 means? If you care to check it out for yourself?
But to answer your question, with the ways of the world today, I certainly wouldn't fear death at all... It's living that is dangerous! The dead can't hurt us as to the living, that's a whole different story, isn't it?

I am an atheist, and I do not fear death. Death is simply the natural end to this life. Why would I fear what is natural?

I am not afraid to die and I am a Atheist. Jesus is not in anybodies life. He is only a imaginary friend who helps you get over your fear of death.

I'm not afraid of the actual dying. I just don't want to ever leave my family. I can't imagine not being with my husband and kids during life's many milestones. I want to see and hold my grandchildren someday too, and see what kind of people my kids turn out to be. I don't care about the pain and am not afraid of what will happen to me. I know I will be happy on the other side, just not for a very long time hopefully.

Yes and no. I don't REALLY know what will happen to me after death. I hope and pray that my faith and hope in Jesus are real. I hope and pray there is a heaven. I miss my grandma and want to see her again. But I am still scared but excited at the same time. I am confused I think.

I do not believe in any deity... I am not afraid to die.. I am not looking for ways to die but if I die I am ok with that.. We each have an indeterminant amount of time to live, live each day to the fullest while you can, you never know which will be your last..
No need for a mythical deity to alleviate fear I have no fear...

On the contrary, I think more people are afraid to live, consequently feeling the need to believe in a "Jesus" or a "Jehovah" or a "What's-His-Name?" in order to make this everyday, dog-eat-dog world more bearable, looking forward instead to the after-death experience of a life hereafter rather than live today before we die.

I was. Not now.
Cos there is Jesus.
Lord Jesus promised to be with us through all the vicissitudes of life. "Lo, I am with you always even unto the end of the world"- Matthew 28:20
The future of those who believe in Christ is secured.

No. I view death as a beginning, not an end.
