I’ve been thinking about death after reading an article adapted from The Case Against Death. It’s written by a teacher of philosophy from NYU, a certain Dr. Linden, who purports his book to be one of the only philosophical works taking an anti-death stance.
I welcome this bold turn in discourse although was pained to read of your discomfort. So true about the road narrowing…In general we don’t talk enough about death which should only really add to the zest of being alive. I have a growing shelf of books devoted to The End, mostly first-person accounts of the encroaching. I may, if spared dementia, add my own one day. I am sure my strength will be ebbing but I hope to be sustained by Thanatos Dal. Meantime thanks for the namecheck.
