Law of Conservation of Energy:
Energy cannot be created or destroyed; only changed in form.
Our souls do not die, we are energy. Our physical body dies because with birth, there is death. For every beginning, there is an end. Happiness is not forever, and neither is physical life. Although if we look at it in the physicist manner and perspective, energy is eternal.

Organisms that procreate via sexual reproduction have to die so that the young may inherit the ecological niches occupied by their ancestors.
Organisms that procreate asexually don't have to die, because the parent is also part of the "new" generation.
Asexual reproduction limits evolution, however, so you don't get complex organisms like humans without death as a necessary ingredient.

I do agree with dave. And it is just part of the cycle of life, or circle. Things are born,which is the begining, and all things have to come to an end so we die. it is part of life, untill it is over :D

We lose our vision and hope and enthusiasm for tomorrow. Not just for ourselves but for our children as well. It is because we get too self centered and begin to question our inner most motives. Reasons we once thought necessary for survival we now look at as foolish and outdated. Skepticism and unbelief creeps in. There is a saying "without a vision the people perish".

Because life is just a party and party's weren't meant to last - Prince. It's a bit of an oversimplification but it's a fitting answer.

Because we would be up to our eyeballs with old people. You wouldnt be able to drive anywhere because there is some 1000 year old guy driving 5 miles an hour everywhere you go.

To make room for all those babies being born. Honestly, the world's population has more than doubled in my life time.
It is high time that every country on earth pass (and enforce) law forbidding couples from ever having more than one child.

Some people offer a lot of reasons that sound reasonable and even go so far as to say it is part of God's plan (that is God who loves us). Myself, I see no reason for it and it is unbearably sad.
