Some interesting views here, and even a story about people who believe atlanteans will destroy the world. Imagine that.
Personally, I believe there is a God an He sent His only Son to redeem mankind and that one day it will be on Earth as it is in heaven and I don't care if anyone thinks that's silly or not. When the day comes that their souls are judged, they will be granted entry into Paradise if I have anything to say about it, because ours is a God of mercy. Or, if that day doesn't come, at least I tried to live my life like a good person.
For the most part, I'm not afraid of dying. It seems silly to worry over the inevitable, especially when it lasts forever (or until judgement day, at least) I just hope it's not too painful. What does scare me is that, if there is no afterlife, what happens when you die? The brain continues electrical activity for a while, right? Is it possible that you could still be aware? What if you were trapped in a nightmare world generated by randomly firing neurons while your brain slowly fades away?
Someone please tell me that's not possible. And if it is, I want to be vaporized upon death.
