Atheism takes away my ability to recognize God in the universe.

Well yes of course, but if there is no 'god' in the universe then what do you gain ?

I've also learned a ton of stuff from ancient to modern religions that has enlightened me tremendously.

Enlightened you about what ?
If it's not true then in what way is it enlightenment ?

There's a tremendous amount to learn from the experiences, knowledge and traditions of mystics throughout the ages.  Cultures have always largely been about religion.

There is tremendous amount to learn, that much is true, but if it isn't true, aside from feeding fantasy of what use is it ?
