The Romans considered themselves religious because they were deeply religious. Roman religion regulated most aspects of Roman private and public life. Most political processes had to be preceded by auspices, a form of divination consisting of reading the omens of the gods. Sacrifices in honour to the gods occurred regularly. The Roman calendar was full of religious festivals. There were several of them every month. There were rites of propitiation, fertility, purification and exorcism and rites for the sowing, the harvest, the ancestors and the dead more in general and many other matters. Emperors also linked some gods to themselves and introduced imperial religious rites.

Is Jewish a religion or a race if religion can a Jew be atheist and still Jew or just Judaism is the religion?

It's a little of both. The term "Jewish" can refer to either ethnicity or religious belief. There are certainly people who consider themselves to be Jewish in terms of ethnicity, but either agnostic or atheist, and also people who consider themselves to be both Jewish (by descent) and Christian (by religious preference).
