"We don't want people to live without wonder or mystery, and in fact we thoroughly recommend - take a look through the Hubble telescope, see if you can get over what you see. The unbelievable beauty and symmetry and majesty of what you'll see, and you want to exchange this for the burning bush? I don't think you will.
Read a page of Stephen Hawking, on the event horizon, for example, and see if that isn't awe-inspiring enough for anybody. And you're seeing there the future of a potentially much more noble, and ennobled and enlightened and emancipated humanity...."

Alright then, because it might make us feel better, let's pretend the opposite. Instead you'll get tapped on the shoulder and told "Great news! This party's going on forever, and you can't leave. You've got to stay! The boss says so, and he also insists that you have a good time."
It will happen to all of us that at some point you'll get tapped on the shoulder and told, not just that the party's over, but slightly worse - the party's going on but you have to leave, and it's going on without you. That's the reflection I think that most upsets people about their demise.
