I'm not so sure how my own religious beliefs would change because of this, but that's more because of my current state of spiritual flux than anything else.
I think that many people would instinctively lose faith because of such a revelation. Think about what this discovery would mean; it would create a totally new perspective on the universe, as we would realize that there the universe does not, in fact, revolve around us, that we are not as special as we once believed, that we are not God's chosen children.
In such a vastly enlarged perspective, the human- and earth-centric nature of the Bible would become difficult to accept.
However, while it would significantly affect beliefs on Earth, I don't think it would be the end of religion in the form it exists today. After all, one could believe that God is the master of all the worlds, and that he communicates through Scripture with all of them.
