Unlike most people in this country - I've met very few! - I was raised basically without any understanding or knowledge of religion. I don't mean that my parents taught me to be an atheist, they just didn't really tell me anything about it. Once I got older I was bit puzzled by at all, and while I suppose at various points I tried a bit harder to get it I was always left a bit confused. It's possible that this means that I've been leading an empty miserable life relative to what I could have had, but there's really no way to even begin to try to explain that to me let alone convince me of it.
Of course all of you people who don't live in urban hellholes do, in fact, lead empty miserable lives, with or without God.*
*I am not being serious.
