Do you believe in God? Why or why not? [Spirituality & Religion]

I was raised Christian, but frankly, I couldn't understand how a "kind" God would let horrible things happen to good and innocent people. I've been an atheist for over 10 years, yet I find myself wondering about religion sometimes.

Edit: Wording.

You don't have to believe either one.
I personally accept that frankly I have no idea what is going to happen when I die. I don't know if nature or some being alters our lives or if it is just us.
I've let go of the need to know and just live my life the best I can.

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit Pretty much this. I enjoy philosophizing about such things but I fully accept that it's an unknown that will likely never be solved.
