On this point, I would highly recommend "Strange Rites" by Tara Burton. She makes the case that people who "leave" religion are often just "remixing" the religion they were raised in, incorporating a weird mishmash of spiritual feeling and secular ideologies/subcultures. For example, libertarians have their biohacking and dreams of immortality, progressives have their pagan fandoms & self-care, and conservatives have, as she puts bluntly, reactionary atavism.
