Well God didn't make us to want to die. That would be stupid. He made us to want to live so we would live fully. If everyone wanted to die, then what kind of people would we be?

Well, I guess that people say that on whim. Or to make others feel important or that they don't want to die because they will miss them. I don't want to die because I don't want to leave the Earth. I love some of the aspects of my life, but I still want to see God. I don't man, sorry.

it`s in human nature to fear the unknown....in fact nobody knows for sure what`s beyond or if there really is something at all so that`s why people fear...and about heaven, well at least some can hope..

That's because when God made man, he didn't make him to die. He placed eternal life in his heart. Psalms 37:11 says "But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace". 37:29 "The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it."
So, my dear friend, I'm not planning to go to Heaven. Heaven is for God and his angels. I want to live eternally here on earth.

Sure, they both reinforce each other. We instinctually avoid death. Maintaining a myth of life after death makes people avoid having to deal with the knowledge of inevitable death.

In the end, yes. there will be some who accept the righteousness of YAHOSHUA when the Almighty says He who is righteous let him be righteous still. Those people will (with the help of the Almighty) live through the last tribulation, and rise to meet the Savior in the air.

I don't want to go to heaven; I know it's not a real place.
Many christians (say, Leanne M) want to die to get to heaven.

Yes. People are afraid of the pain and they are afraid of the torment.

Every teenager wants a car, but they don't want to work to get it.
