Buddhism.
Buddha was not a god. He merely discovered the way. Enlightened ones who reach nirvana aren't gods, they are just people who have found the way.
Many people will no doubt argue that I am wrong, but that is not because Buddhism actually has gods. They merely wish that Buddhism was a theistic religion, so they could confront it on an "equal" basis. They do something similar whenever they falsley state that atheism is a religion.

Atheist don't believe in God or anything, its not a religion, I don't think there is such a thing as a religion who doesn't beleive in God or a supreme being, creator.
Some call him Allah, some Jehovah, He told Abraham I Am who I Am according to the scriptures.

Technically no. Religion in its definition means worshipping a higher being.
However, there are many spirituality groups such as Buddhism (that people do call religions), and other eastern philosophies.
Start there and never look back :)

Wicca has a Goddess. Bhuddism doesn't have a God. Norse Paganism has multiple Gods. The bulk of Agnostic Faith's don't have a God.

People are wrong about saying hinduism does not have a god. They actually have many. And Krishna was proof of that. This applies to buddhism, jainism, sikhism, and so forth. All of hinduism. They in fact believe in many dieties. But let the question of the ONE alone. Vishnu is a diety of buddhism. And after the passing of buddha, now he is revered as a god. Though never claimed divinity for himself. Just like jesus. But krishna told the masses that he was god and all life stems from him. These are his actual words. Different messengers for a different culture, religion, and land.
I am half african american and chinese and study the role of my ancestors. I am islamic and in my religion GOD has 99 names plus one. And one of those names is AS SALAM. Translated to THE PEACE. So to my acceptance, THE PEACE was thier GOD. For one can not limit GOD to this and that. Especially not to jesus. This goes for muslims, christians, jews, and so on. That is like me calling muhammad(pbuh) GOD. It can not be. But the strength and capability of mankind can go a long way. The only short comings are the ones who permit it.
But to answer your question, existance would not function period without GOD. It is all HIS/HER/IT's. But there is always the day of due recompse. For the hindus, there is karma or one of thier many dieties. For judaism there is jehova or yaweh. For christianity there is jesus. For islam there is allah. Religion can exist with out the aknowledgment of GOD, but in my religion it is still all HIS. Just like me. So even if they don't aknowledge GOD, does not mean SHE is not there.
PEACE! SALAM! SHALOM!

Buddhism dosen't belive in a deity. Instead you try to get rid of Karma (good and bad) until you join with a greater spirtual force.

Buddhists do not worship any higher power, contrary to the popular rumor that we worship Buddha. Confuciaism and Taoism also have no gods...
