Death Death is something all humans have in common. What differs between humans is how they view death. Different philosophers have different views on death. Philosophers such as: Socrates, Baum, and Russell. Another person, who some consider a philosopher; Etty Hillesum shares her views on death in her essay “Facing Death”. While writing this essay Hillesum was a prisoner of war. She was a Jew stuck in a Nazi concentration camp during world war two. …showed first 75 words of 1080 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1080 total…things take their course and if need be suffer.” This is such a sad statement. She is almost contradicting herself with her essay. Her essay in some ways is “doing” something as we speak. Although I do agree that the theory behind death will most likely be given by the leading power of a people, I think that there is a truth to be found. So the discussing it will eventually lead to a conclusion.
