    Religion also teaches us to fear death, with the possible exceptions of Buddhism and Hinduism. I know that Christianity and Judaism definitely want us in mortal fear of death and judgement.

      i don’t understand that particular Christian viewpoint of judgement. I was raised christian, but it seems that the whole judgement thing goes against the reason Jesus came. He was the payment for our sins, therefore we are not judged. Therefore we should not fear death because there is no more judgement.
