Death

Death is one of those things. One of those things that really sucks. How did it come to suck so much? Fear not! For I shall tell you. It used to be, when death was first invented by St. Benedict, that it was an awesome thing, something that people enjoyed greatly and became very popular among the people. It wasn't until the whole world had embraced death and made it a part of their everyday end of their lives that St. Benedict was accused of being a dick. Of course the allegations were not true, but the scandal and subsequent degrading tabloid headlines sullied his good name forever. From then on, people were not so excited about death and tried to remove it from their society, but it was already so deeply ingrained that it was impossible. To this day, there are ongoing efforts to remove this phenomenon with things like "eating healthy" and "exercising regularly" and even things as extreme as medication and surgery. While these things have provided a temporary fix, none have been successful in preventing the death all together. Scientists hope to one day find the antidote to death but many prominent philosophers simply seek to popularize it again by using an incorruptible figure to inspire the same acceptance that St. Benedict once had. The most current person being considered is Batman. It is thought that he will not only get people excited about death again, but that his pure awesomeness could be a potential antidote for those that wish not to die.
