I find I have no need to worship, in fact I never have had that need.

No, I don't feel a need to worship. I was raised a JW, and I always worshipped because I felt that was what I was supposed to do intellectually not because there was some internal need like hunger or breathing. It was like losing a weight when I opened my eyes and removed those artificial constraints. I still recognize physical, mental and emotional needs that can be quite adequately filled without a religion. But there is a sort of question mark over the spiritual part of me if such a part exists. Some claim to fulfill their spritual needs outside of any religion or belief in God. But this spiritual fulfillment, enrichment, growth, whatever is such and abstract thing to me and I've really never been able to grasp it. I'm not sure that I even have such a need.
