There is a lot to lose by believing in a god (depending on the god)

For the Christian God, if the writings were Truth, then this world is a failed experiment that now serves only as a test of faith. It has no value at all. Only the infinite time in heaven has value.

This affects morality, values, purpose, and happiness -- and not in a good way.
