Is it worthy of discussion because there is something actionable in it?

Yes.

Actionable: To Consider the significance of kindness, compassion, love to and for each other, which world, at large, is missing owing to many factors.

And to consider one's own superficiality and have profound thoughts for others.

		Why is that tied to some notion of an afterlife? If anything, it seems to me that the reality that this one life is all any of us have should make one care way more for their fragile peers, and for making it the one life they have count. As The Doors once put it, "no eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn".
