I strongly disagree, every action we do is important and has an effect. Look up the "Butterfly effect".
As far as Earth goes, everything we do matters, yes.
As for as the Universe goes, nothing we do matters. At all.

This isn't about human emotions or feeling good. Emotions are subjective to an individual and is easily manipulated. If you live your life mostly by how things feel to you than you would be unhealthy period. When I use the word good I reffering it to health.For me, Religion is either helathy or unhealthy. If I want to feel good I'll watch a porno or something.
Good and Evil is in the eye's of men, it is subjective. What I speak of is objective, and transcend "feelings".
Why would you need religion to tell you how you feel? 😕
Mental Pain exists far more than Physical Pain does. Mental Unhealthiness is far more common than Physical Unhealthiness. People suffer needlessly all the time.
Buddhism teaches us to not allow emotions to run our life, and to suffer as little as possible. Because of Buddhism, I have decided to train myself to only suffer when its worth it. Not to suffer over every little negative speech or action done upon me like I used to.
