We don't fear death, and neither should you. You know what Socrates said about death, in Greek. of course? "Death is just one more night."
As a Humanist, I love science. I hate superstition, which would never have given us A-bombs.
I love science, not only because it has given us the means to trash the planet, and I don't like it here. It has found the answer to one of the biggest questions: How did the Universe begin, and how did we and all the other animals get the wonderful bodies we have, with eyes and brains and kidneys and so on?
OK. So Science sent the Hubble telescope out into space, so it could capture light and the absence thereof, from the very beginning of time. And the telescope really did that. So now we know there was once absolutely nothing, such a perfect nothing that there wasn't even nothing or once. Can you imagine that? You can't, because there isn't even nothing to imagine.
But then there was this great big BANG! And that's where all this crap came from.
