Death and Evolution- Why should we die for the species to exist

If death was not programmed into our cells, we living things could not adapt to change so fast and would be a gonner by now. Without death evolution can't work its magic and the species that does not let it's individual members die will not last long. Death is a unique "defect" in genes that has actually resulted in the survival of the species and life on this planet.

What an irony that DEATH, which is so "traumatic" to any individual member of the species, is so good for the survival of the species.
