And is it really all that bad? It wasn't bad before you were born was it? You felt no pain, no discomfort.

I think death is a similar 'feeling' as going under surgery. Have you ever been on the operating table? I had my tonsils taken out and remember the experience well. Once they put you under, you have no sensations. They could have cut me into a million pieces, it would have made no difference to me. I wouldn't have felt any of it, I simply would never have come out of that state.

Yet I was still alive, but without sensations. I was still alive, but unconscious. I was in a state of utter 'darkness' for lack of a better term. Death is even more deplete than that. It's no sensations without life. When you put those two together you have nothing but matter.

If you argue that something happens after death, you migh as well argue that a rock has feelings. It's lifeless matter just like a dead body.
