Id want to know who'd prophesied it ,psychics can see many outcomes, based on different reasons ,a prophet can only tell you a prophesy ,doctors on out of date info.If you were given an envelope with the time and date of your death inside, would you open it?
I don't think one answer is more valid than the other. It's just personal preference. For some it might be life changing and for some it wouldn't make a difference. For some it would fill them with dread and stop them from moving forward and for some it would renew and revigorate their purpose. We all approach life differently I guess. I think there are also some cultural nuances to consider as well, especially when it comes to western vs eastern views of death.It would be dumb to open the envelope.
I feel like it would be more human nature that if the average person knew when they would pass, they would live mundane lives and never take any risks, make any goals, never get married or have kids, never make friends, never go on any adventures, never read great books, or learn a new skill because they'd figure they were going to die at x age anyway.
The default human setting is laziness. It takes the excitement and promise of the unknown to get us out of our comfort zones.
