Shouldn't most religious people in theory be excited to die because then they get to experience the afterlife?

Not all religions have a heaven to look up to. Most schools of Hinduism, and Mahayana Buddhism, require a person to live multiple lives before they achieve nirvana ('non-being' or 'enlightenment', not 'heaven'). Other schools of Hinduism and Buddhism are either silent on life after death (Theravada) or reject it (Navayana, Charvaka).
lemmy users when they find out that Christianity isn't the only religion in existence: :O
