I don't believe in psychics or an afterlife (I really have no idea What Comes After and I'm not particularly interested), and I do not fear a physical death.

I do, admittedly, fear a fruitless death, because I'm not convinced that I've done all I can and it'd be rather annoying to be unable to continue doing what I can. Hopefully, I don't be bumming around the astral plane or whatever sulking about it, though.

I do recommend reading Morihei Ueshiba's Art of Peace. I was arguing over martial arts with a friend just a few nights ago when it came up, so I've been re-reading it lately.
