@gavvet. For me, the issue of death has to do with how it is perceived. And that perception is one that is dictated by our institutions, especially the religious ones. We can agree that there is nothing wrong with being sick or dying. You mentioned that it would be impossible for everything to go on. A more fundamental question, however, is, if we could postpone our deaths indefinitely, we would not. This is not how we, collectively, have sought to evolve. Death is the way maker, and birth is renewal. But we have been taught to fear death. It is a terrible disease from which our culture suffers. This I think is the main issue and it is something that I will be writing about not long from now. That said thanks for this post. It gives one something to think about.
