Necrophobia

Our culture has a problem with death. We’re afraid of it, we resist it. We have a lot to learn from so-called ‘primitive’ cultures in that respect; they accept it as part of a larger process. Of course, the negative side is the way this positive attitude towards death can be manipulated by cynical ideologues, driving such people into fanatical acts that destroy others’ lives along with their own.

If you haven't already, you must watch seasons 1-5 of "Six Feet Under." It hits our fear of death front on.

My favorite show ever.
