Well, in my writings on Judaism, I explore the hypothesis that Jewish monotheism entails secular humanism, a fact that emerged as early as the writings of Job and Ecclesiastes. The more "transcendent" or separate from any idols God is, the less relevant and relatable he becomes. So this "religion" becomes a functionally atheistic social club, despite all the remaining hollow talk of theistic metaphors. It's no accident, then, that most Jews are literally skeptical, secular humanists and "reformed" liberals.
