My view is that of science and the first law of thermodynamics. Here follows a simplified description.
The three laws of thermodynamics could be used to put the lie to the idea that we're all stars and will live forever (or at least till the end of the world) as star dust reabsorbed into stars. Another poster noted that they now find it "romantic" that they'll be reabsorbed into the dust of the earth from whence they came. But the natural adjunct that they won't really be there to experience it is always there lurking in the darkness.
The three laws of thermodynamics often used by non-theists to justify the romance of turning back into mud, or dust, actually defends theistic faith quite admirably since the laws prove, as most other sciences now do, that there is a meontological reality (a reality outside of physical ontology) that's somehow, though hidden in physical reality, as, or more, real than physical ontology.
The human mind can be, has been (Penrose, Godel, et. al.), proven to be meontological (posses attributes and powers that can't be attributed to physical causation), such that romanticizing about becoming physical dirt at death ignores the nobility of the meontology of the mind therein privileging physical ontology over a reality (meontological) that likely transcends the physical world by orders of magnitude. Which is a way to say don't worry about your body; the mind, a sentient, stable, consciousness, can either find or receive another, or, conceivably, live without it.
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can't be created or destroyed. Only its physical state ---entropic dynamics---changes.
The second law states that in any closed, finite, system (say the universe) energy always, absolutely always (Einstein emphasized this) careens toward lower states of entropy (less ability for energy to perform work), and never (except by causing entropy loss to increase in another part of space) does entropy ever reverse (toward higher levels of ability to perform work).
But then the third law of thermodynamics is the theism-rendering kicker. According to the third law of thermodynamics, entropy can never reach equilibrium in a finite number (finite, physical, reality) of steps. What this means is that although the second law says entropy always seeks death, heat-death, wants to die, i.e., thermodynamic equilibrium at lower states of entropy (the so-called heat-death), it can never find what it seeks, in a finite (physical) realm.
But that's impossible. How can entropy continue to careen toward equilibrium, the heat death, and never reach it? That's gotta be religious mumbo jumbo!
As all the other science are beginning to tell us (quantum uncertainty, the Aspect proof of communication faster than the speed of light, etc.) the physical world is a sham, a facade, fakery (John 6:63), such that we can only shed tears of concern for those who have sold their soul to a physical god, a physical reality, or their own physicality, ignorant and ignoring the meontological reality that guarantees everlasting, and real, conscious, self-conscious, stable consciousness, life, forever and ever Amen.
Jesus implied everyone has it. But only those who realize it receive it. It knocks at every door, but only those who open the door, not those who peer through the looking glass seeing nothing but the sound of it (the shadow of a whisper), receive it.
