If you don't know whether you believe in gods..then you don't believe in gods. Believing in gods is a positive affirmation. It's like saying "I don't know if I believe that the us is the greatest country on earth" - well, there you go, clearly a person who doesn't believe that the us is the greatest country on earth.
Your claim about right and wrong not being objective and measurable is just that, a claim, as it's always been. There's a significant amount of scientific evidence..ironically..that that's not true - fwiw. While any worldview can be limited by it's axioms and application, that's a non-example to that effect. In the end, there's no need to jeoulously guard any of those things. By all means, explain consciousness by way of the immaterial better than it's explained by way of a brain.
I think, in mere reality, it's the other way around. Some people jealously guard their own ignorance hoping that it allows space for some x of value to them where materialism or monism (at least to them..also generally in ignorance) does not. I honestly long for the day someone gets truly creative and insightful..and rather than hastily declaring that science can't explain -insert the usual silly many times disproven shit here- they say "cabbage". Why is cabbage.... is.... legitimately, a more profound and difficult question to answer than why our solar system is here, or arranged the way it is, or why a living creature might be sentient.
