I don't believe death is the end, but I have no idea as to what happens afterward. I think it would be cool if death were there to collect me. I like to think of death as similar to the character from the movie Meet Joe Black.

But if no one died of old age, we would not reproduce at such a high rate. Our biology would have taken that into account.Mad Maniac with axe-firing chainsaw said:For me, death is a necessary evil. If no one ever died of old age, the planet would become hopelessly over-crowded and we'd die of war and hunger instead, and probably take the ecosystem with us.
