Well depends on your definition of religious. The first chapter of The God Delusion talks about how Einstein described himself as a 'deeply religious non-believer', but Dawkins says that he thinks because of what religion and religious is often considered to mean, perhaps spiritual is a better word. And even that doesn't do its justice because that often has a religious context too.
I for example am 'religious' or spiritual only in the sense of wonder about the universe. Not superstition or belief in the supernatural or miracles.
