What happens to a people’s culture if they dump their religion?

Question by Desiree: What happens to a people’s culture if they dump their religion?
In other words, how intrinsic is the link between religion and culture? I think religion is one of the major indicators of culture. Sure there are other things that contribute to culture like language, system of economy, customs, laws, diet, art, clothing, geographic location, climate etc, but I think religion is probably the most recognizable identifier of culture. Take Americans for example; I you think of the American culture you’d think, mostly nutty Protestant Christians, English speaking, extreme capitalists. So what would happen to cultures if religion was dumped? Would there be as much diversity and variety in the world if it was entirely secular?
