They don't. Roughly 30% of Americans claim no religious affiliation, and 10% claim to be Atheist or agnostic.

However, to answer your question more directly, religion gives people comfort and a sense of certainty in an uncertain world. It also provides social organization, acceptance, a sense of belonging, and structure.
