To allow the elements that make up our bodies to change into other types of matter... dirt, rocks, vomit, air, more people... you get it.

Death is the result of sin entering the World. It's not so much a "purpose" as a "consequence." Death is the end result or product of sin. For those who are born again by the blood of Christ, it is but a passing "shadow" that marks the transition of mortality to immortality. For those that do not know Christ it is the sealing of their eternal doom. Death is the last enemy that will be destroyed.

Wouldn't that be quite obvious...? There isn't one. it's a relative term.
Death is merely a mark in time of a single life cycle - that time which ends an individual life and yields the products of that life's decay back into its ecosystem. For the individual life that has expired, it is an end point with no more purpose than a period. For the ecosystem, it's a potential "anything".

The idea of death, the fear of it, haunts the human animal like nothing else; it is a mainspring of human activity - designed largely to avoid the fatality of death, to overcome it by denying in some way that it is the final destiny of man.

the only purpose of death is rearranging matter. The universe is in constant change and nothing last forever. Death is only change, nothing more and nothing less. This is the Buddhist perspective.

To claim it's prize of human beings but when a person has been baptized into the body of Christ all the death gets is your sin. Your sin is put to death on the cross with Jesus, you get to go free with him

Death is the penalty for sin.
Death is also a very effective method of limiting the expansion of evil.
