Potentially stupid question--I've thought about converting for some time now, but I'm almost afraid I don't have a good enough reason. I was raised Christian, but more and more I don't feel like who I am as a person lines up with Christian doctrine, and I love everything I've read about Judaism and what it believes so much more. How do I explain any of this to a rabbi without being disrespectful or sounding like I just want a "get out of Christian-normativity" free card?

my grandfather is jewish (non-practicing) and of all of my family i'm closest to him. i don't really believe in a god, but i've been thinking about converting to judaism. i know it seems weird but i think if i ever were to find some guidance in religion, it would be in judaism, partly because it would make me feel close to him. i know i can't just snap my fingers and be jewish, it would take time and effort and commitment, but do you think it's a stupid reason to convert to a religion?
