Critical thinking goes a long way.
Why do human beings need to give meaning to everything? How does that even make sense? It's only because we slowly evolved minds capable of thinking in the abstract that we became self-aware and able to think beyond the present and into the future (and beyond death). Objectively speaking you're just a huge bundle of sophisticated cells that work together really well to create what you perceive as consciousness, your pain and suffering is simply electrical/chemical signals triggering from the sensation of something possibly harmful that might kill you and possibly prevent you from spreading your genes which is why we evolved pain to begin with. Believe it or not, you didn't exist before you were born and neither did your consciousness. Did you remember anything that has occurred in the past 12+ billion years? No. Death is the same state as pre-birth.
Religion is just a ridiculously effective (way too good) mass-control tool that instills fear and admiration into peoples hearts in the hope that they might follow your guidance that you, biased as you are, believe is right. Well, obviously, if you take a look at the biggest religions in the world, they share quite a different worldview and they're message differs wildly which means religion can't be an objective truth otherwise there wouldn't be so many of them.
