Is life spiritually sacred and eternal? Or must everything that has a beginning have an end?
I'm too unsure to say either way.

You weren't scared before you existed and I'm pretty sure you're not gonna give a shit after you die.
I think fear is what pulls lots of folks into the afterlife fantasy. It's irrational and narcissistic. People in power have always use fear to manipulate masses. No surprise the afterlife was one of the first excuses to get people in line.
We all get old and die if we are lucky. The alternative is dieing young and well, you're still fucking dead.
To think we have an all mighty, all powerful creator just means he/she is incredibly cruel, just doesn't give a shit, or never existed in the first place.
