Yes, there is no meaning to the word 'Death' without 'Birth.' I do agree. Some one asked-'who says there is death.' Yes, I say there is death. But the death is to the body and not to the soul. Our mental attitude and vasanas carry on with us though our body withers away as there is no death to the soul. Death of the physical bosy is just a small break for everything else in the present life. As it is said in the scriptures, death is the change of body like how we change worn out clothes. But as you said ,it is not so easy to believe @ some of our most beloved's death to be really not death and to believe at that poitn of time that death really doesn't exist in reality. Yeh this is possible practically for simple but enlightened souls.
After all, the purpose of birth is for us to learn lessons, to grow in the spiritual aspects of ourselves and be ready to satisfactorily live all our lives before we are reborn with a diffrent flesh and mind.
Above all, as I indicated in the comments section, this article is just a fiction, an imagination as to what will hapen if there is no death at all. It doesn't intend to mislead people. I appreciate your loud thinking.

Well, for time pass it is okay to think that.
but,in reality we can not think like that. Whether it is biological or some thing else.
Existence won't allow like that. and with out Death, you can't say birth as birth. and one can't exist with out other. Because the very nature of one gives meaning to other, whether it is life or death. It's just like two sides of same coin :-))

I remember one Sanskrit statement, which says 'One is none other than his son - something like 'putrO vei sa:'). I think G&A too mean the same. Their bilogical explanation is very apt.
In my view, if we conquer death, our 'persistence' on what we think is always right, (which itself is a big disease) will certainly persist.

Thank you. A thought just arose as to what will happen if there is no death. This article might seem to be foolish to few but I had to write what my inner thought prompted.

Madam,
Yours is a good article, as it is thought-provoking.
I am reminded of the Sloka in Geeta (2nd chapter)
'vaasaamsi jeerNaani yathaa vihaaya
navaani gRuhNaati narO~paraaNi'
('vaasaamsi jeerNaani yathaa vihaaya
navaani gRuhNaati narO~paraaNi')
(Just as one throws away torn clothes and goes for new clothes, man leaves this body and takes another one.)
This is part of 'practical philosophy', according to which 'Nothing is permanent.'
It is said that gods envy men due to the following reasons :
1) Men die & have different births - hence there is variety in their lives. Gods cannot (they are animishas) die; their lives are monotonous.
2) The age of gods is fixed around 30. Here too, things are boring for them! There are no phases of growth, sustenance & decay for them. A real man can enjoy all these phases with enthusiasm.
3) Gods do not have 'continuous scope' for improvement, whereas man has it.
