The important point to make is that science completely shifts the burden. Religious explanations, far from relieving the unbearable ignorance we have of extremely consequential questions, become completely superfluous.
So when you ask why am i here, and science tells you that 'you' are here due to the natural selection pressures that exist in the world, which have forged your body and psychology passively, without consciousness. You can say 'yes but it was part of a divine plan because i am loved by the almighty', but such statements haven't the slightest compulsion.
Philosophy should be intolerant to that sort of emotional succour, which after science is all that is left
