WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THE DEAD?
WILL YOU FORGIVE ME FOR LIVING?
CAN'T BELIEVE THE THINGS THAT THEY'VE SAID
"WONDERFUL DAY FOR A KILLING..."
IT'S KILLING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
(No one will get that reference.)
In all seriousness, though, I like remaining alive. I have no reason to believe that there's an afterlife, and I think it's a silly sort of security blanket to believe thus without any sort of proof, so I have no reason to enjoy the state of being dead. Meanwhile, I have much reason to enjoy the state of being alive.
It seems to me that the rational thing is to definitely have an aversion to death.
