I don't know. The notion of a religion of nature has been consistently explored, and even sees some bottom up resurgence of late. It's likely that people will always find use of a way to make axiomatic claims about the world as they see it, about what is right and wrong, what can't be done, should be done, must be done. If, as Kloro alluded to in his own way, religiosity is, itself, natural to humans - then even without a belief in gods..or anything supernatural at all - there will still be about as many religious people as there ever where or are.
Or, to put it another way - if we understand the claimed attributes of god as having been informed by the world as we see it - then it's always been the case that some natural or empirical claim lies at the root of our misapprehensions about goblins and fairies and whatnot.
