I wish humans would. But even Hindus and Buddhists think reward punishment is an idea of multiple lives where if you do good in a prior life you get a better one in a future life, and if you do bad now, you get a crapper life in your next.
It bothers most humans the prospect of being a blip that didn't exist prior, nor will be remembered after.
The only real after life anyone has is living in the memories of those whom survive them. But even then, even with the most famous people, even that fame is fleeting and finite.
After our species goes extinct, our species will not be remembered. 5 billion years from now the most famous and the never known will be remembered the same.
