You seem to be trying to make an Appeal to consequences. Normally that would be frowned on as a valid argument but it seems to be the height of what passes for debate around here. So a quick question.

Assume for a second that the universe is "pointless" and there is no "meaning of life". Would you rather accept the truth or live in a delusion?

That would be impossible. The truth has a point. If the universe is pointless and “has no meaning”, then you couldn’t trust your own conclusion about anything.
