You don't have a religion? Good, don't be in a rush to find one.

There are many appeals in religion, not just one. There is community, identity, anxiety-reduction, purpose in life, and self-actualization (which usually manifests as helping others), among other things.

Of course, there is also the opposite of all those things, at least within the institutions of religion, which is why religious politics are so dramatic. Religious politics are also tied in with socio-economic standing.
