To make it about labels is stupid. Religions have come and gone in human history and new ones get invented all the time.
Think of it this way. Can you name every single Pharaoh who ruled during the 3,000 year dynasty? Can you name, without searching, off the top of your head, every single president or all the world's leaders who have existed in human history?
There were no written or organized religions 200,000 years ago, much less 4 billion years ago when the earth formed. Our planet will die and our sun as well, and there will be no record of humans or the bullshit gods we invent.
The only time that maters is now. Sagan's "Pale Blue Dot" speech is what humanity needs to face if our species wishes to extend our finite ride.
