Why has there to be a reson for things to be? Are "believers" just afraid of the idea that the universe may be pointless?

A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death
