Why do we have to die?

Ever notice how the leaves are the most beautiful on the trees in the fall when they turn the magnificent colors?  Actually, they are about to die and fall to the ground.  Don't think of death as the end, but the beginning of life everlasting in the next eternal place known as heaven.  If you know Jesus as your personal savior, dying will be something you grow to look forward to.  Our life will be perfect there--no problems!  We'll get to spend forever with people we loved who have died before us.  If you think life is good here, there's no comparison to heaven.  Ask Jesus to come into your heart if you haven't already and begin to see things through His eyes.

Death is the Great Equalizer,and the Bringer of Relief.\nIt is also part of the cycle that all animals on the planet\nare part of-to live is to feed on death.\n Do you want to live forever? Besides,if nobody died the planet would be overpopulated in an unbelievably short time\nto the extent that there would be no open spaces anywhere.\nNo thanks-death may not be fun but it's necessary.

OK. Why not?  Are you in control of when you die?  We can all "Kill Ourselves" if we wanted to.  Obviously, more people than not, don't want to die by their own hands. Other words, today is just as good of a day as tomorrow, except, we don't say when it ends.  Fate does.  Or call it what you will, but really any day to die is bad.  There's a good phrase that derives from the "American Indians" which says "Today is a good day to day".  And believe me, If we're all gonna die, isn't even a possibility.  WE ALL ARE GOING TO DIE.  NOT IF.  BUT WHEN.

All we have to do is survive long enough to expand into space. I think if we did that, it would be hard for anything to stamp out all the pockets of humans around. Especially if we could figure out how to not die as individuals.

That's a good question because I really don't think you can ever just die of old age. You are always dying of something! Yes, it might happen because you're old (heart attack, stroke, diabetes) but it is still a reason other than old age. And young people can die of all those things too. \n\nI guess my answer is you cannot die of old age alone.

Without injury or sickness there is nothing left to kill us.  What causes death by old age is a deterioration of the immune system (i.e. your thyroid is largest during puberty and continues to shrink for the rest of one's life).  All forms of death fall under one category or the other, this is as inescapable as death itself.\n\nJust for trivia's sake, I once read a _Ripley's Believe It or Not_ book which mentioned a man who was never diagnosed of any illness until the age of 114.  He ended up dying from it, the first disease he was known to have had.

we all have a different purpose in life. God made every on of us for a special reason, part of that reason is to know that when we die we go to heaven. that is the most important

Having to die.\nHaving too many feelings.\nHaving to live in a world of other humans who want to ruin the world.

well if i knew that i was going to die today then i would be telling every one about what God did for me. i am not kidding. the fact is is that we don't know when it will be our last day on earth and so why aren't we more cautious about how we live our lives for all you know you could die right now. and there is like no way that you could stop sinning.

Probably something to do with the fact we all live together on this planet but when you die you are then on your own

Because they want to be comfortable and pain-free as long as possible. Yes, everyone dies, but you don't have to be uncomfortable in the meantime.

Because our body just like every other living thing needs to excrete waste and other harmful chemicals in our body, and things that are unnecessary.  If we didn't, we'd either die, or our bodies will turn everything we eat into fat or something...

When you die, that's it.  There is no purpose to life except the purpose you give it.  \n\nThis may seem depressing if you've never pondered it before, but once you accept it, it's immensely liberating.
