EDIT: my poopy phone submit before i could type a reply. will fix in a minute

i'm gonna focus on the main point which is that there's no inherent point to a finite existence because the whole argument basically revolves around that

first of all dying 50 years from now absolutely is different from dying today. there's 50 years of possibilities cut out. 50 years of meeting new people, learning new things, teaching people s***, creating things and leaving behind memories. and that's not even getting into s*** like starting a family or something that leaves behind your genes or memes for centuries.

your point is that the universe will eventually end, so nothing a person does will affect the outcome. it's like a math equation with no variable: 2+2 always equals 4.
while it's true that on the scale of billions of years we won't have much effect, it's completely pointless for living creatures to operate on that scale. a person can make decisions that affect people for a month, a year, a decade or even a lifetime. it's because we only live for a short time that our decisions have meaning. if you or i can have a lasting positive impression on a person's life, we should be proud of that impact, even if the people we influenced will also someday die.

so it appears you believe in an infinite life after death. i don't want to get too far into it, but consider this: infinity is a lot longer than the ~75 years a person lives. so does that mean a religious person shouldn't give a f*** about anything other than going to heaven or hell? is injustice acceptable in the long term? should you just do the bare minimum to ensure salvation and just treat the whole of your mortal existence as a chore, a prelude to forever?
whether you believe in an afterlife or just acknowledge the inevitable heat death of the universe, you can still value your own life and what happens in and after it.
