That is an impossibility on a planet of 8 billion. It would be nice to think so, but the reality is most humans get sold the beliefs/religions of their parents in youth long before they can formulate adult critical thinking skills. And people prefer quick feel good answers over harsh reality. It is scary for most humans to think there is nothing after death. The though of an afterlife is a mental way of comforting oneself, no matter how false the perception.
