Do you think ghost is real ? and the world after dead ?
If ghost is real, that means you will not be afraid of dead, it sounds logic, however, everyone is afraid of dead ! Me too, I'm afraid that ghost is not real and dead is the end forever ! Oh my god, I've had no girlfriend yet :[

I'd say "no" and "no," personally. I'm also not really afraid of death. That's not to say I wouldn't fight someone trying to stab me, however...

Nope, not afraid of the dead, and I don't think there's anything after death. Haven't quite decided if I think ghosts exist yet, but I'm leaning towards "no", and if they do exists, I don't think they are spirits of dead people.
It's kinda funny that so many people consider ghosts scary. Loads of people claim to have seen ghosts, but I don't think I've ever heard of anyone being attacked or in any way harmed by a ghost (except in movies). So why be afraid of them? -
"If ghost is real, that means you will not be afraid of dead, it sounds logic, however, everyone is afraid of dead !"
Hold the phone. There's a lot of assumptions in that.
First, you're assuming our fears are rational. I don't know of anyone with rational fears, and if we did fear rationally, we'd all be more afraid when we got on the freeway then when we got to the airport. We'd also be more afraid of Cancer then AIDS, and most of all, NO ONE would be afraid of cockroaches or heights, which have NO rationality in them, but, ah well.
Second, you're assuming that just because there is the chance of prolonged existence, it will therefore be a pleasant prolonged existence. Who are you to say that most or all of the people on this board aren't going to Hell? I know the Babylonians certainly believed in the after life, but it was an after life in torment, desolation, and loneliness, the kind that would make you wish for non-existence. And even if not Hell, who's to say its better or even as good? The Greeks believed that the after-life, though not completely unworth living, was certainly very dull and pestilient, only slightly better then the Babylonian version in that you were at least surrounded by your fellow men and had the opportunity to occasionally talk to God's, including Persephone and Pluto, and learn news from outside.
And further, who's to say that there's not a real strike to your pride and sense of self to know that you will be placed more in God's hands then you are right now? Even if its pleasant afterwards, it certainly doesn't do much for your Mojo in the here and now.
Beyond that, if the after-life is good, but we do not see it now, we will fear death just the same, and man is truly blind. -
But as for the OP, depends. Sometimes I am sometimes I'm not. I think I'm more scared to die certain ways then others, with murder, being devoured by animals, poison, Cancer, and plane crashes towards the bottom of my list. Oddly, I'm perfectly fine with dying in a fistfight, dying in a car crash, or dying in old age. Also, somehow dying in fire doesn't scare me very much, despite the common nightmare of mankind it represents. I do believe in life after death, though I also believe in God's judgement and that will not necessarily be a pretty sight. I hope I am on the right side of it; the worse part about God's judgement is knowing that he's probably right.

But I'm afraid of both ghost and dead. I didn't believe in ghost until I saw ones. Believe me or not, I really saw ghost twice. Yes, they are real. They said you'll be brave after seeing one but I'm not. I'm still afraid of them. I'm also afraid of seeing dead people who are not close to me.
