humans have been thinking the same thing about dead since they started to think, no matter the technology, the politics or anything, death will be the same everywhere everywhen
this is a text from the 20th century BC
The life you pursue you shall not find.
When the gods created mankind,
Death for mankind they set aside,
Life in their own hands retaining,
As for you, Gilgamesh, let your belly be full,
Make merry day and night.
Of each day make a feast of rejoicing.
Day and night dance and play!
Let your garments be sparkling fresh,
Your head be washed; bathe in water.
Pay heed to a little one that holds on to your hand,
Let a spouse delight in your bosom.
