You should fear the absence of death, if people never died, the earth would be a pretty crowded place. (The dead greatly outnumber the living, with estimates ranging from 50-108 billion). To go further, if nothing living ever died, the whole biosphere couldn't work at all. Life exists because of death. Saying we like life, but not death, is like saying: "I love breathing in, but I hate breathing out."
