CMV:Fearing death doesn't make any sense.

First of all, the "you" you identify with is probably the summation of biological activity in a complex and ordered fashion in such a way that produces consciousness.

Secondly, when speaking of self-centered or "selfish" fears, you can only rationally fear that which you may possibly experience. Further, It is only rational to fear possible experiences as they would be experienced by you *at the time they can or will occur*.  

Thirdly, experience terminates before or when the biological integrity of your being terminates.  This is death.

Conclusion:  Since death requires an end to experience, you cannot rationally fear experiencing the absense of experience.  Fear of an end to experience is therefore irrational.

I don't think death as you've defined it is the part that scares most people. It's fear of some combination of:

* uncertainty
* helplessness
* loss

I would say that 'fear of lack of experience' is a pretty convoluted fear to have, but fear of an uncertain future, an uncertain time until you die, or an uncertain ability to accomplish important things BEFORE you die is pretty reasonable. Fear of being helpless against aging or leaving your loved ones alone is also reasonable. Fear of losing things, people, and experiences that are important to you are also reasonable.

I would guess that most people who fear death fear the consequences it has for their life, not some ambiguous non-experience.
