It's neither, actually.

There's no reason at all for us to think that there is 'life after death', for there is no such thing as a soul. Any thinking otherwise is just 'Santa Claus for adults' stuff and is the realm of the simple minded.

It's not possible for humans to imagine death, for we cannot imagine what it is like not to have feelings.

Death is not a loss to the individual (if you are unable to sense that it is a loss then it is not a loss). It is only a loss to the people who cared about that individual when he was alive.
