I Am Not Afraid to Die
It is human nature to fear the unknown, to turn away from what we do not understand or hold on to ideas, regardless how crazy they may be, so that we can face the darkness with some hope.
Early man feared the night or the changes in the weather. To explain these things and reassure themselves they believed in a supreme force controlling the world around them.
As time passed and mankind began to explore and understand more about his own world, he began to fear death. Unable to accept that his own existence could possibly be equal in worth to he animals that he fed upon, he elevated himself to being the child of a God.
Mormons pushed that even one step further by elevating man to being worthy of becoming a God himself.
In the end though, all of these beliefs originated from one thing -- fear, and today those same fears are being used to draw people into an organization that cares nothing about them or them soul, all they seek is to increase their numbers and obtain more money through this.
I do not fear death or what I may find beyond. I have become a far better person after having left the Mormon / LDS Cult (and yes it is a cult despite what they will try to make everyone believe).
