    I definitely thought it was possible and even probable as long as I wasn't killed in a car accident, shot in a robbery, etc. I was aware of my mortality, but barring any unfortunate incidents, I did not expect to die from old age.

    To not die...to live forever...the final payoff

    You had to believe...else why follow this crap.

    Every one else you knew would die.Relatives ..friends

    The whole 6 BILLION and more would die.

    But don't worry...be happy you will make it

    You really made me sit back and think with this one, Minimus

    Really, all I can dredge up is wishing I was ALREADY dead. That's my earliest recollection of how I felt about life as a kid. Never could believe in paradise earth, just wished I wasn't around for the hell that was my existence in the here and now.

    I didn't really think about whether I believed it or not, just knew I had to do what I was told "or else". Course I was a kid then, now I am amazed that adults choose to believe this fairytale.

    Yes I did believe I could live forever. When I start thinking that I will definitely die in the future, it's upsetting so I avoid thinking about it.

    I never believed it cause I never really thought I was good enough to pass armageddon. I never really felt that I was a good christian, so I decided instead of trying to be a good christian, just enjoy my life to the fullest and I'll worry about death when it comes, or armageddon, or the day of judgement or who really cares. I don't even know how a tire works.
