You mentioned you had searched for God and I wondered about how you searched for Him..and since you mentioned you never checked out Christianity because you had dismissed it as a little kid, I suggested that logically, it bears consideration if you wanted to actually investigate the question of God seriously. I am not sure exactly how one might rule out God in the first place, being that we are finite beings with limited knowledge.
Don't confuse dismissing Christianity with not considering it. I may have concluded it to be false at a young age, but Christianity has been in my face enough that I am fully aware of what it entails. Still, I have dismissed it.
And I haven't ruled out god completely. Being an agnostic atheist, I admit there is a possibility god exists, albeit a very, very tiny one. The thing I have completely ruled out is a personal god that has any stake in human affairs.

I have ruled out the possibility of the judeo christian god coz it is obvious bullshit.
