I realy would like toknow. I am not afraid of dying, but I don't really want to any time soon. But I would like to know only cause I want to do some things that I haven't done before and I think that would encourage me to do them. And I would like to be able to say goodbye to all my friends and family.
this pre-supposes that it is a fixed and immutable date and time. This assumption is, however, not in accord with reality.
Although everyone makes a plan before they begin each incarnation about the method and rough time in which they will leave that body we can modify this choice at any time by an act of will.
Absolutely not. Maybe it is really far into the future and then I just go wild and mess everything up because I know there is so much time left. Or maybe it is so near in the future i might just develop a complex trying to avoid it...
Initially, I might be afraid, and then curious, but eventually I think the idea of knowing would ruin my life. I'd always feel like I have to hurry and that I'm running out of time. In this case, ignorance is definitely bliss.
No way, I'd be too scared, and if we knew when we were going to die we'd try to change fate and I don't think that would work out to anyones advantage.
No, because you would feel rushed and be needy all the time you need to take it nice and easy for your one chance in life. but hey you have things to look forward to if you have a religion.
i would want to know when roughly i will die(so i can do everything i want to) but maybe not the exact date as i will be fretting and dreading for the whol period of time til i die.

Hi Jeff,

Blessed be.

I would love to. I have no fear of death and I would like to be able to finish some projects before I die. Knowing the date would be a great help.
