If I resign a game without making the first move as white or second move as black, will I lose points?

One of my clan leaders gave me some games I didn't want to play, from what I could tell, I had no choice but to resign. After resigning my score was the same....

As clan matches go that would indeed be the unpardonable sin. 😳

but, I didn't lose any points from rating... Is that right. I figured I would have lost 30 or 40

Your rating changes by a maximum of 32 points. That would indicate a large rating difference between players though.

A game with no moves(or just one or two moves) doesn't count for ratings,I think.

Yup,that's exactly what happens.The game is considered non-existing.Though I did think clan and tournament games always counted.Guess not 😕

You personally haven't lost any points but you've given away two valuable points to the opposition. In the battle you are talking about there were only 4 games in total. Your poor team mate now has to win both of their games to just draw. I see you are also a clan leader... how will you react if your own members follow your lead?

All clan members have the option of changing their settings to make themselves unavailable for clan duties.. leaders have a right to expect games to be played by members who are apparently available.
