You may not be afraid of either, but of the two which is the scarier concept?
Please answer this regardless of your religous/spiritual classification or group. And please state what religion you are.

Death and the end of life do not scare me... I am fearful of suffering, but not of dying.
If I could die like my grandmother, peacefully in her sleep, I would be grateful... unlike all the people that were screaming in the car with her... lol

Agnostic.
I suspect that death is the end of life. That is the natural order of things. The world has gone on for millenia with people dying. Nothing particularly scary about that.
If there is something after earthly life, I will be surprised and will likely find it interesting if it includes a state of consciousness and an ability to continue to expand intellectually.

I agree with Matt, above. Despite all the crap you have to deal with each day, in general, I'm enjoying conscious existence.
I'm not really afraid of the physical pain of dying, but I would be lying if I said I don't feel a fear of the unknown as relates to what will happen after death.

without really going in to too much, neither. No matter what the reality is, it's events in this reality that scare me more than the thought of them ending, regardless of the outcome. If I'm living my life everyday in such a way to fully experience what I am doing at any given moment, then there is nothing to fear about any unforeseen occurence stopping my existence.

do no longer do something to harm your self. ending your existence may well be thoroughly tragic. it rather isn't any longer properly worth it. i understand what it feels decide to have human beings say undesirable issues approximately you in extreme college. guess what? It gets so lots extra appropriate. Getting a splash older solves each and every thing and you do no longer decide to take that far off from your self. i realize it rather is stressful, yet forget approximately human beings as much as you are able to. Take good care of your self. i'm serious. you are the single you will desire to fret approximately, no longer individuals or bullies. talk on your college counselor and enable them to understand the form you experience. they are able to help you. it is going to be ok! Promise!

The end of life definetely...
I don't have a religion, but deep Faith - if that makes sense...
I do believe that our spirit lives on after we're dead, it will however go on to a new life where we won't have any memory of what happened before...
I am scared about the end of my life, of not having done enough...

LoL, I was gonna say neither, Hahaha.
How about, not being approved in God's eyes.
That is the scariest for me,
not making it into the Kingdom of God.

I'm thinking that you are differentiating between the pain or distress of death as being "death" and the nothingness afterwards as being "end of life"?
If that's the case, I have some fear that my death might be painful. Ceasing to exist doesn't excite me too much, but it's nothing to be afraid of.

None. Death will come to all. It is certain. Why worry. I rather die and be with God.
Why worry about end of life. It may not come another saveral thousands of years.

neither. I don't look forward to my life ending as I'm rather enjoying myself. What I fear is the pain that may come before the dying part.
