Life occurs at the nexus of order and chaos. Most religions consider Order to be the Utopia they call Heaven. Nothing changes, all wants and desires are satisfied. But how can this Utopia allow for excitement or challenge? It is merely a very comfortable existence. So there is nothing to "live" for. On the other hand all religions that have the concept, describe Hell as unbridled chaos. Hell is normally full of fire and convulsive change. So there is no way to live.
Again, the according to current scientific thinking, the Universe started out with the ultimate convulsion of the Big Bang (i.e. the ultimate Hell) and end with a cold, dead, relatively uniform and unchanging Universe (Heaven???).
Only in between the Big Bang and the cold, dead Universe can life exist.
