但是为了重点讨论，死亡的坏处，我要撇开道德问题不谈，转而考虑这种情况对我是好是坏，如果死亡有可变性的话？

But in keeping with the focus of our discussion about the badness of death, I want to put aside the moral question? And think about how good or bad for me? Is it that there's variability in death?

youdao

那些告知你们是对你们有好处的事情，其实只有坏处。

What you are told is good for you, is actually bad for you.

youdao

是呀，肥胖对我们的身体健康是有很大的坏处。

Oh, I see. Fat is bad for our health.

youdao

If death was bad for me, that would be a fact If my death is bad for me, that would be a fact and we'd ask ? well, when is that fact true?

如果死亡对我来说是有坏处的，那这就是一个事实,如果我的死亡对我来说有坏处，那就是一个事实，而我们就会问,这个事实什么时候是真的？

Well, not now My death can't be bad for me now I'm not dead But it's not 100% clear that the other alternative isn't acceptable "? Why not say,"My death is bad for me when I'm dead"?

至少不是现在,死亡现在对我来说没有坏处,我又没死,但另一种情况我们也不能百分百,确定是不可接受的,为什么不能说，“死亡在我死的时候对我来说是有坏处的？
