Think about this for a second. We are born with the knowledge that we are going to die, so I ask you to consider why we are even given life in the first place. Doesn't it seem like a cruel thing to do, give something life with the knowledge that its life will ultimately mean nothing because it will die?

Why live if you know that the end result is just going to be death. Its like playing this great video game even though you KNOW your going to loose. That in the end everything meant nothing because you can't take it with you.

What good are memories of good times, and bad, if life after death is nothingness where concience thought does not exsist?

Think about this, do you remember the time before you were born? If not, then how do you expect to remember the you were live after you have died?

Our lives are meaningless in the end, and the journey there is made even more terrorfying because we know what will happen.

What is the purpose to life if death is the end result?

Aye, I have the same ideas, like you have.
I tell you, that a few hundred years more, and propably the human race will know the secret of eternal life.
Now it is sounds insane, but trust me, it will be possible, it only needs time to reach that knowledge.
Its all about genetics.

Also I bet that humans will be able to create any lifeform via modified DNA. Time travel? Contact with alien civilizations? etc. The sci-fi movies will become a reality. When? It is hard to tell, but it will happen.
