Why not though? Is it because trying to imagine "not thinking" (which is what death is) is impossible? Thats my theory, at least on how the whole afterlife idea came into play.

Why do you think there is a "point"? It's not exactly "lucky" anyway. There are billions of planets within their star's habitable zone, which means that there are probably countless other planets with life.
