The ONLY evidence they even had a religion at all is that we translate the Pt as being magical and religious. Take away this assumption and there is no support for the people having beliefs. Remember the Valley Temple is actually a port and the Mortuary Temple is actually the place stones were worked. Across the board all the infrastructure that is interpreted as being holy, sacred, or magical is actually the tools and structures necessary to build the pyramids.

Later people copied the great pyramids with tiny little piles of mudbrick and copied the language to the best of their ability after science was lost.

There were no beliefs, no religions, and no magic. "Gods" were actually "theories" and "heka" was scientific observation. We simply mistranslated the Ancient Language in the exact same way the authors of the "book of the dead" mistranslated it. It "looks" right but it is completely and utterly wrong. It could not be more wrong.
