Following a religion is very important in an individual's life, but it is more essential to practice wholeheartedly by listening to qualified teachers who preach selflessness, love, and kindness. Above all, one must be a good human being, or else one might not be a true follower. Thus, it is not about what you believe in, but about how you practice. So, if one is not prepared to engage in the practice of any school of thought, then it would be more sensible to simply be a kind human being.
