We weren't put here just to live, then die. There's so much more to it than that! I hope you will look into the matter in depth to find out what God's plan is for His creation. Many say that He's abandoned it, or never existed, but neither are the case! Nor are the World's troubles His fault!
When an honest & thorough search is done of the Scriptures, reasonable answers to all of the perplexing questions in life are found. I've found this to be the case first-hand, & suggest that you take a good look for yourself.
Always be careful to let God 'speak for Himself', & not let others 'put words in His mouth'!
Sincerely,
"Make Sure of All things; Hold Fast to what is Fine!"
1 Thessalonians 5:21

You don't die zereod. You would have left an impact on the society. By being good and moral, you would have tried to make this world a better place. That way, you would die knowing that you were a good person with no burdens on your shoulders.

So why? Why religion? Why morals? Why do good things? Because people are nicer to you on Earth if you're nicer to them. Because if you kill people and get caught you go to jail for a very long time. It's instant gratification that demands our morals and our religion, not the promise of a life beyond, this coming from a rather religious person. Mostly becuase, if the afterlife is a nice thing, for the religion part of it, we don't want people like Stalin and Hitler going to heaven with Mother Theresa. Does it seem fair to you?

Even if we die with nothing, we're all alive now and we shouldn't hurt people coz those people still have feelings and are alive. Like even if u die and end up with nothing u wouldn't like it if someone hurt u so u shouldn't hurt them. Should try to be nice o each other and make the best of it if we're only here once.

when someone dies we leave all the earthly, physical thing behind. god does not want physical things from us though he wants us to be good. life isn't just about having things. we can all the riches and popularity in the world and still be mentally worst off than others. why did marilyn munroe committ suicide? what does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul, nothing darling. let us try to live a peaceful, united life and let positive vibes flow always. is it fair that others can have wealth and live fat while others suffer? god will facilitate everyone. this world only brings pain and torment by satan. trust god for all darling.

If you die without trusting the Lord Jesus Christ and what He did for you on the cross then you will go to hell. He died for you sins He was buried and took your sins away and He rose again the third for your justification. You don't need to die a zero, thrust Him and you will spend eternally in heaven. Romans 5: 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

The idea here is that... well, you can't take a lick of it with you. Regardless of how important one may think they are in this life and no matter how much material wealth has been accumulated.... not a bit of it goes beyond the undertaker.
The only wealth you MAY be able to take to the next level... if there is indeed one to go to, is your good deeds and you spirit...
What's in YOUR wallet?

You die, you're gone. You don't need to do good things for afterlife. We should do them in the name of dignity and honour in this lifetime.
