Although I don't disagree, I think that's a very narrow way to look at it.

I think it's more about the fear of dying than about actual death. If you just died tomorrow in your sleep, what would it matter? Assuming you didn't have a terminal illness or are of old age, you probably didn't fear immediate death. And you didn't suffer one bit.

Sure, it would suck for your friends and family, but for you, it wouldn't matter.

It's different for everyone.

I fear non-existence more than dying.

Why do you fear it? You didn't fear it the 14 bn years before you existed, did you?
