Religious?

okay, so here is the thing, I don't believe in god, and it's not only because I have never seen any proof of a god, but also because how am I, or anyone else supposed to know what Religion is the truth? is there only one true God, regardless of the millions of religions that exist in the world? are somehow all of them are true, but that doesn't make any sense. 

But regardless of how many religions there are, or which one is the truth, how am I supposed to believe in something I have never seen or been shown any logical sign of its existence? id rather be wrong at the end of whether religion is real than to devote my life to something I'm not guaranteed to believe in.

But don't get me wrong, I do believe that religion is good for people, I think that it gives them comfort and a logical explanation for the unknown. which is why I don't like to say I'm an Atheist because when people think of atheists, they think of assholes that think they know everything and are hell-bent on forcing people to not believe in religion, but then get mad when religious people force them into their religion?? very contradicting, don't you think?

I do tend to feel left out on holidays though. for example my mother is Hindu, and during October-November we celebrate Diwali. I always feel so left out because I can't bring myself to believe in these legends and stories. and trust me, I've tried. Christmas is the same thing, but who are we kidding, almost everyone celebrates Christmas whether or not they are Christian or Catholic or all of the other religions that celebrate this holiday.

I would love to be apart of Hinduism because when it comes to the Indian culture, you're missing out on a huge part of it since it consists 99% of religion alone. (obviously, I'm exaggerating but you get what I mean)

Does anyone else feel this way?

My First Post.

so I've never really done this before, and I'm not really sure what to do for this. I'm also not even sure if anyone is going to care. but I do know that I want to make this into whatever I want it to be, whether it be recipes that I attempt to bake or a journal entry about my terrible or good day. or if I want I may give my opinions about some of the books or movies I watch.
