-2.Greek Philosopher Epicurus suggested that we should not be afraid of our own death, because we are not harmed by it.When you are alive, you have not been harmed by your own death, because it has not yet occurred. When you are dead, you no longer exist, so you cannot be harmed. These are the only two possible states.
