In the case of people having a crisis of faith, it is usually precipitated by a catastrophic event in their life. The question most commonly asked in this event is Why? Why did god let this happen? Why would god not save me from this? Why? The answers to that question, if the person is unable to accept "God has a plan", is to think that god has it in for you/your loved ones/ the planet/whatever and as those raised within the major religions usually retain a bit of fear of their deity, it is easier for them to believe in nothing that to believe in a god that is uncaring, or even to "switch horses".
Answer - insecurity of directionJourneys of faith are usually long, sometimes difficult, and always interior. Many, many people come to see organized religion for what it is. Where to go from that point can be scary and bewildering. Answer - combined factors- Some forget that there is not only a choice between religion and nonreligion, but the middle-ground of personal, undoctrinated spirituality.
- Others also group the first with the latter - sort of "spirituality is the same thing, regardless of who gives it to you, so the only way out is nonspirituality".
- The third and more practical factor is ignorance - if you don't know something exists, you aren't likely to care about it, much less try to find out more or join it.
It is almost certainly a blend of all of these, and more.

What is metaphysical spirituality and how does it differ from traditional forms of spirituality?
Metaphysical spirituality is a belief system that focuses on the exploration of the nature of reality, consciousness, and existence beyond the physical world. It often involves concepts such as energy, vibrations, and the interconnectedness of all things. This differs from traditional forms of spirituality, such as organized religions, which typically have established doctrines, rituals, and practices centered around a deity or deities.

Are rituals and spirituality connected?
There are no rituals in spirituality. Rituals are connected mostly to cultures and religions. They are based on mythology, on fairy tales. All religions have their own rituals, superstitions, dogmas, and fairy tales, and they advocate them. Unfortunately, they are like a kindergarten that teach children folklore and folktales. Spirituality is a university, we have to graduate beyond religion. Spirituality is not another religion, it is an advanced study, an understanding of who we are, of what God is. Spirituality leads us to self-realization and God-realization. Therefore, there is no connection between rituals and spirituality, except that rituals are part of religion which is a kindergarten of which spirituality is the university.
