Most every question is answered by either
1) Evolution OR
2) There is no answer

This one is a #1!.

Living things eventually die because there has yet to be a specimen that has a mutation which prolongs its life indefinitely, and then had the ability to pass this trait on!. Because a species requires only reproduction in order to survive, immortality is no requirement!. Life to sexual maturation surely is necessary, but nothing more!.

In fact, only if prolonged life increases survival of a species directly, by benefiting the reproductive capacities, would such a mutation have any success in nature!. Otherwise the carrying capacity of an ecological niche could hinder evolution altogether, causing either rivalry or sterility!. In the first case, sex and violence become codified!. In the second, the species becomes susceptible to plagues due to lack of diversification!. In neither case is immortality a hypothetically necessary hindrance on survival!.

Therefore, there is no necessity to death!. It is simply a contingent fact, mandated by our natural history in lieu of either natural or artificial advances!.

The existential response to this question is unanswerable!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

We die because the longer we live, the more suffering we have to bear!. Death ends our suffering!. And human beings have no sufficient knowledge of what happens after death!. Reincarnation is possible but not certain!. We die because the conclusion of our life affirms our existence in this world, to live forever is not to exist!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Cause you can't have living without dying!. Dying is a natural part of life, its a mystery, its unknown, we can make up our own guesses about it, but nobody really knows what happens, I think the mystery of it, the curiosity it instills about life, makes life more interesting and worth enjoying every moment to prepare you for whatever may come!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's the way of nature to maintain balance!.

People die just like every LIVING ORGANISM on earth!. May it be plants, single celled organisms or animals!. We have the ability to move, grow, mature, reproduce, decline and DIE ("lifespan") - these are the qualifying characteristics of living things!. it's the way of nature!.

People die, babies are born!. We are born to die!.

Death is the end of the journey, hence the full realization of "life"!.

It is up to us on how we give meaning to our lives while we are still "living!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

So as to lessen the population!.!. Tee hee hee

As a Christian, I guess we die because God says so!. The life we have is a borrowed life and He can get it back whenever he wants to!. We die by flesh, but our soul will suffer/inherit the afterlife events based on what we did during our life here on earth!.!. =)

Each soul-embodiment has a goal, and each life is refreshed from material entanglements by passing on, much as one is refreshed by going to sleep and waking next day!.
