Reply to comment by Provokateur in How Death Can Help Us Live: a philosophical approach to the problem of death by simsquatched

Coped with? Sure, maybe. Accepted? No.
But: If there's a problem with with your car, for example, you can probably cope with it. But that's not the same as trying to fix it.
And saying that "well, eventually, all cars stop working" isn't an excuse to not fix it.
Coping with the machine being broken would be precisely the wrong thing to do.
The point is to always keep in mind that death is a problem.
