Perhaps we don't need these religious concoctions to pillow the fear of death. Just the fact that there is an unknown, and something greater, can bring a feeling of peace. That's enough for me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Death is a fearful thing.
I am convinced that nobody should be afraid of peace.
Although many of us fear death, I think there is something illogical about it.
Prohibit the taking of omens, and do away with superstitious doubts. Then, until death itself comes, no calamity need be feared.
Peace is that state in which fear of any kind is unknown.
We cannot allow our fears and our disappointments to lead us into silence and into inaction. Because this country that God has blessed us with, it is worth fighting for.
Let your hope of heaven master your fear of death.
Do the thing we fear, and death of fear is certain.
You get rid of the fear of death by understanding that it is an integral fact of our existence. You do that through will and reason.
Fear of death makes us devoid both of valour and religion. For want of valour is want of religious faith.
