Nonsense. True is or isn't. It is objective. "Points" require value judgments and are subjective. The inability to distinguish between consensual reality and personal reality permeates creationist/ID arguments.

But if the universe is pointless, then it is impossible to make a point...about anything.

[[Nonsense. True is or isn’t. It is objective.]]

If true is objective, that means it’s an absolute and further a universal absolute, whihc points to an absolute truth determiner/creator, yet i’m sure your next argument will be the absolute universal morals, ie: truth, ie: Evil is bad, good is the right thing, is subjective- round and round we go. Philosophers and theologins have tackled this problem of objectiveness for centuries and have gotten exactly nowhere except right back where they started, and that is that ‘one can’t be certain if their is an absolute universal truth, but on the other hand one can’t rule it out either because htere are evidences that point to both a subjective nature of a universal morality, while htere are also evidences for an objective universal morality/truth
