It depends on your life I'm guessing. If your life is pretty good (mine is at the moment) the concept of death is extremely heart breaking. There are so many things to witness and experience. Even if you do them all that all dies with you. Makes writing, art and any other medium of expression seem VERY important.
Now if your life blows death seems like a decent escape.
I think religion not only serves to keep the masses in line, but also to encourage people to enjoy their lives and be productive.
