The thing is, there's nothing stopping you from having faith. But do keep in mind that you want to have faith in something that is not shitty.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falun_Gong this one seems nice. Promotes meditation, physical exercise, as well as peaceful civil involvement in society helping others and doing good, which will help you reach spiritual enlightenment.
So while I personally like and prefer having a yawning void where some other people have faith, I generally recommend this religion to people who prefer having faith. If this one isn't to your liking, perhaps research what other non-shitty options are there.
And as a general pro tip when going with the faith option: please, no fanaticism.
Edit: I've read some more on this, and this religion has some shitty postulations too. Well, keep looking out.
Pretty sure Falun Gong is a cult last I remember.
Well, it has been outlawed by China's government since they didn't like that the religion actively promoted civil political engagement and simply doing good.
The main difference between a cult and a religion is that the cult's founder isn't dead yet. Falun Gong's founder is Li Hongzhi, who is alive but is around 72 years old so it'll probably make the transition to religion relatively soon.
I mean I have very negative views towards both concepts sooo ;p
