I am using Christians in my example, but it could very well apply to other religious peoples...
When a Christian person dies, why does another Christian cry for them? I don't think I am mistaken when I say this happens. For example, a mother will cry for the loss of her son, Christian or not, correct? However, according to Christians, the place they are going to after leaving the earth is infinately better. Why would that cause anyone to cry? Why don't we see Christians celebrating death with big birthday-like parties? When a Christian is on his/her deathbed choking out his/her last few words to another Christian loved-one, why aren't those words something like, "Here I go! Halleluha! See you soon my earth-dwelling friend!". It just seems a bit ironic that we don't see this kind of excitement regularly.
