It's reasonable in the sense that humans need answers and death is still the ultimate mystery. Maybe there is something beyond this life, maybe not.

My guess is though at some point human beings will advance to the point where they have basically "cured" physical death to the point where they are able to live hundreds if not thousands of years. In that case, I think religion will basically be faded out as it won't really serve the same kind of need.
