No, I am restricting this question to those hypocrite theists who claim that this life (even a happy one) is inferior to the afterlife and yet they do not practice what they preach. They do all they can to postpone death.
It's human nature to want something better. So if the afterlife is better, why take extraordinary measures (like going to the doctor) to postpone death as long a possible.
The answer, of course, is evolution. Evolution has given us the will to survive for as long as possible. (Those without a will to live do not pass this trait on to offspring). In other words, evolution contradicts the creationists theory of a happy afterlife.
