Why are ALL ignoring the giant elephant in the room *?!?

Debate endlessly about God when God is only a euphemism for our fear of death! Can not we at least be honest with ourselves and with the fear gnawing within us all? TS Eliot knew: "I will show you fear in a handful of dust." Religion does not exist if the man was not so completely terrified of his own mortality he had to invent industry to explain why he alone among creatures of the planet could overcome death. "For dust you are and to dust you shall return." (Genesis 3:19). Is not it time to call things by their name?! Primus world deos facit timor. (Fear created the first gods in the world) -. Caecilius Statius (220-168 BC) * Elephant in the room refers to a truth "obviously being ignored, and is based on the fact that an elephant in a small room, it would be impossible to ignore ".

Biological evolution has instilled an amazing darling death within us. Is what keeps us alive long enough to reproduce. So when someone offers you immortality, it dispenses with logic and reason, and I think that is true.
