That simply says "I am a theist". It doesn't answer why you are a theist, which was the question.
"Why are you a theist?" "I am a theist because I was raised one/because I have experienced a god/because I think theism best explains the universe/because I take Pascal's Wager/because etc...."
Ponders too much; thinks too little.
