Sure, I like to discuss stuff like this. I personally don’t believe in God, so the short answer is no.
There are too many examples throughout human history of people attributing stuff they can’t explain to a God, only to find out later that it was just something they didn’t understand.
I have a much easier time believing that humans are just ignorant and prone to magical thinking than the existence of some being in the sky that decides everything.
That said, I don’t mind if others find comfort in that kind of thing. I just expect for their beliefs to not affect me in any way, like mine shouldn’t affect theirs.
