Are these rather stupid reasons for being afraid of death or not?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) November 30th, 2014

Many people say they are afraid to die, why, if there is nothing beyond the grave, some of the reasons people have stated for fearing death would be stupid or make them a fraud. On a cancer site I was viewing they had several reasons why people who had cancer were afraid to die, some being:

• Fear of the Unknown.
• Fear of Pain and Suffering.
• Worry about What Will Happen to Loved Ones.
• Isolation.
• Fear of Non-Existence.

Most are disingenuous to the notion of being afraid to die because most are most of those issues are irrelevant the moment your heart stops.
