What's the reason for death? Or rather why do you think you as a human were designed to die eventually?
Is your inevitable death to be looked at as a good thing or a bad thing? And why?
If you think life is valuable and/or important, do you think death is equally valuable and/or important? And why?

To be or not to be....
I tend to see my death as a bad thing. I don't believe in an after life of any sort -- there could be one, I don't know. I enjoy living so I'd rather not die~ If I could, I would live forever (assuming of course that normal human aging does not proceed...I don't want to spend a millenium rocking back and forth in a rocking chair)
I would think that if a person finds life valuable/important, death would be, maybe not equally, but certainlly important as well. Normally people who don't care about living tend to not care if they die.
What does death serve for? Who knows? Change perhaps? If we did not die, then why would we reproduce? If we didn't reproduce, change would come very slowly, and maybe even eventually stop.
