What is the god I believe in? I believe in a god beyond understanding. Beyond description. I don't know what god is. I just believe in the concept. The idea is fascinating.

"Because I want it to be true" is not a valid reason to believe that it is. For some reason, you believe that there is a god of some sort. Why do you believe that? "Because I want to" is not an honest answer.
It's in my nature to believe in a god. I cannot let go, so I embrace it and treat it as a concept to be pondered upon. I cannot comprehend an afterlife, but god is something that has some merit in my eyes. There is your reason.
This is stupid
