I was reading the Ring of Morgoth, and it is referred to death as part of the marring of Arda from Morgoth´s bad doings.

But as always, even from Morgoth's corruption, Eru's work is greatened.

Maybe the gift that Eru gave men is the possiblity of abandoning Arda and go and dwell arond Eru... And that would be a thousand million times better than dwelling in Aman with the Valar... And Im not even taking into consideration that the Dagor Dagorath will destroy everything... And men will be safe from it (at least the ones with Eru).

So... if I faced the choice of immortality or living with God... I would die a thousand times to live with Him...

And why did he gave such a gift to us? Well, GOD KNOWS!
