it's all nonsense. Man has conjured up all sorts of stuff just cuz humans can't deal with the fact we're all going to die.
We're no different from the cows we eat or the insects we step on everyday. We got lucky, or unlucky depending on your point of view, to develop brains capable of dwelling on our own mortality.

Nobody can say for sure of course. It's why this question will be pondered by humans as long as this planet exists. Which probably the way we're going won't be much more than another century.

The thought of being worm food sometimes scares me but mostly i feel comfortable with the fact that death is nothingness. The world existed before you and I were born, people were living their lives, enjoying and suffering but it didn't mean shit to us cuz we hadn't arrived yet. Day after you die pretty much everybody but maybe two or three people will totally forget you and go on with their lives.

Now illness and old age is something worth being worried about.
That I don't want. A long illness with the indignities you go through, the depression and anxiety..........no thank you. I will definitely drink some hemlock if that happens. At least I hope i have the balls to do it, until you're at that point, it's impossible to know if you can do it.
