search mode will ideally be as far as you ever get. Your self-descriptory phrase "don't really know" is, after all, an encapsulation of agnosticism; i.e., there's insufficient evidence for either the existence or non-existence of god, so I "don't really know".
The challenge, having reached that point, is to maintain it (since I'm convinced you'll never develop an empirical proof either way) and continue to seek out snippets of truth based on reason and logic.
The dilemma, which you'll face throughout your life, is whether to continue to embrace
not knowing as a permanent condition, or to lose patience and, driven by a not-uncommon need to be sure of something, grasp one of the readily-available recipes for knowing everything that are up for grabs.
