I'm not altogether sure if I really had a religion to lose. I was probably sort of a Christian when I was at school school at least nominally but you tend to assume everyone is unless they're from a foreign country where they don't understand what the real version of events in history is for some reason. Any faith I may have had would have gradually faded away along with any belief in the supernatural in general over time there wasn't a clear cut realisation that I was or became anything. My view at the moment is that there could be something interesting going on but whether human made religions have anything to do with it is questionable. Whatever reality ultimately is will be reality regardless of what we think or would like it to be so it's best to concentrate on what matters to us in our own sphere, the stuff we know about. I could possibly be converted to a religion but it would have to be something particularly juicy in terms of evidence or a really seriously good argument.
