Because we can't just die, and then we never exist, that would just suck.Just because somebody says that there is a heaven dosen't mean its true, How would they know, did they talk to god. Im not saying I don't believe it but how do I know.

Unlikely.
The idea of a Heaven (Paradise if you're Muslim) is a man-made creation used in all countries to keep the masses in order. The fear of a Hell is used in the same way. The Bible, the Koran etc were all written by man.
It may seem sad, but why should we not just die? We really are not that special in the big scheme of things. After all, you had no great problem before you were born, so why should it be a problem for you when you are dead?

Many a religion will insist there is a heaven , and the opposite, hell .
the part I don't like , is that heaven is a institution or place of praise , and is instilled by fear of going to hell , so it gives the notion we don't have a choice how to live our lives , so the consensus is obey the teachings follow them and the reward is heaven . I personally believe My God is pure love , and has given me the freedom to chose this micro life of ours , how I feal and fit in the realms of decency and human morals ... That said , I don't believe in heaven or hell, as are only human created places, My personal believe and whole heartedly is in spiritualism ( no denomination) that is, after death we come back into new bodies at birth , and we do this as often is needed for our souls to learn all the experiences necessary of the many lifes we will have , All this knowledge that we receive will be used to become in time the guiding spirits for some new baby in the future , just the same as each of us have one now ,you could call it ANGEL. So be assured your soul will never end .

We have a book full of eye-witness accounts of people that DID talk with God...the Bible. See what that book has to say about heaven. Other questions can be answered at www.whataboutjesus.com.

You can't know. And since you can't know, you have to accept it on faith. Since faith denies logic and reason (Martin Luther called Faith and Reason mortal enemies), then it is illogical and unreasonable to believe in heaven.
I'll stick to logic and reason, and say that it's perfectly okay to 'just die' and that be the utter end of it.

When we die, our genetic make up collapses
back to a stage called "quantum energy."
Eventually, this energy explodes and becomes "particle"
energy, again. We are now ready for another cycle.

I guess no one can know for sure, but I do believe so.
