Thoughts on people who claim not to be religious but still believe in Jesus/god/sin/heaven etc?

Met a few people who say this and I know there are different schools of thought on this topic. Thoughts? Can you believe and not be 'religious'?

People just say that so they don't offend anyone

Well where do they think those ideas come from? Organized Religions. I think they just want to make themselves sound more credible.

It is semantics. Maybe they say they are not "religious" because they think they have a "personal relationship" with the invisible man in the sky. These are often the pious. By most people's definition they are religious. Though their piety, delusional thinking, and self-rightousness leads them to think that they are something beyond that...

Just in case? Or they find some confirmation to their bias in it.

Many people do not go to church or temple or mosque and still believe. that does not make them religious, it means they have a belief system.

Liars?

It's cool now to say your'e a "follower of Jesus", not a "Christian".. I think people are trying to distance themselves from all the crazy zealots..
