Never seeing your loved ones again is a horrible thing. People don't like being separated from their loved ones, they want to see them again.

They also don't want to give up all the things they have in the living world. All the friends and family they still have here are all separated from those in the afterlife. Even if it's not entirely permanent, it's still very much removed from their regular life, from what they know.

Imagine having all your loved ones in one place and one of your loved ones goes somewhere else, and you can't easily contact them. You don't know how they're doing, you can't communicate with them, and to even join them you'd have to step away from your living world (the one you've come to know so well) and step into the afterlife (something people know barely anything about).

That's a really scary step. It won't be easy to get all your friends and family back together and united when one of them has passed onto the afterlife. And people like to be united, to see who they care about on a regular basis. People may not like the afterlife or even want to go there because they don't know enough about it, they don't know if they can even communicate to their friends and family in there, etc.
