Death is the termination of the biological functions that sustain a living organism. The word refers both to the particular processes of life's cessation as well as to the condition or state of a formerly-living body.

Phenomena which commonly bring about death include predation, malnutrition, accidents resulting in terminal injury, and disease. Death of an entire species is known as extinction. Human activity has increased the number of extinctions in recent times, one cause, for example, being the destruction of ecosystems as a consequence of the spread of industrial technology.

The nature of death has been for millennia a central concern of the world's religious traditions and of philosophical enquiry, and belief in some kind of afterlife or rebirth has been a central aspect of religious belief. In modern scientific enquiry, the origin and nature of consciousness has yet to be fully understood; any such view about the existence or non-existence of consciousness after death therefore remains speculative.

The ankh is the Ancient Egyptian symbol for "eternal life." They and many other cultures since have viewed biological death as a portal into an afterlife.

Death..???
Q. Why do people have to die? And if death is inevitable for all of us and one day all we ever had and worked for and all that ever made us happy and sad all comes down to meaning nothing then why live? What is the point of life then? If I can slip on a bar of soap and die and never get the chance to see my 3 week old daughter grow up then what is the purpose of my life? How do YOU cope with death and the thought of your own eventual demise??

A. There is no life without death in this world.It is natural,it is destined,it is inevitable so why fight it.Why fear it,embrace the fact that you're time will come in the future.Until then,have fun with the time you have left.Make the time you have left with your daughter a joy filled experience.Show her what it means to be a women.Teach her well.And when you pass she,among others,will carry you in their hearts.Don't waste to much time on pondering the reason we die,just know that we do.Until then get these thoughts out of your head so your daughter can have a mother who is happy and not depressed!!!

What is your philosophical definition of DEATH?
Q. Most, if not all, persons define death with a lowercase d in accordance with biological reductionists who view death simply as that the heart and brain have ceased to function. Few define Death with a capital D, that is, philosophically. Few can identify Death, and stand a chance at avoiding it. What is your philosophical definition of Death with a capital D, or what are the signs that someone has reached Death? How do you try to avoid Death?

A. There are many types of Death. One can still be physically alive and walk thru this world...Dead. By this I mean with no care for others and no interest for anything but themselves. There is a Death of old things, like habits, when one quits smoking, it is the Death of a old habit, which in turnes gives birth to something new, like the healthier body for example. There is also a physical Death, where the body ceases to function, yes the heart stops beating. But, we are more than just Physical Beings, when the body ceases to be, the Spirit will continue on... Death is always balanced with Birth, in some form or another. ...these are a few thoughts that I have about Death. I fear it not, for I am greatful for Life. Peace and Love to all R. [cont.]

A. "The plague did more than just devastate the medieval population; it caused a substantial change in economy and society in all areas of the world. Economic historians like Fernand Braudel have concluded that Black Death exacerbated a recession in the European economy that had been under way since the beginning of the century. As a consequence, social and economic change greatly accelerated during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The church's power was weakened, and in some cases, the social roles it had played were taken over by secular groups. Also the plague led to peasant uprisings in many parts of Europe, such as France (the Jacquerie rebellion), Italy (the Ciompi rebellion, which swept the city of Florence), and in England (the… [cont.]
