You don't know for a fact God exists. If you did you would be able to give undeniable evidence, which I guarantee you can't.
God doesn't answer prayers, that's an illusion. Watch this video.

We never know if prayers could be real or not.
But if the outcomes are the same no matter what you pray to, such as a jug of milk in the video, then either one of these two must be true: the object either is not concerned with prayer, or it does not exist to enable it to answer prayer. The jug of milk exists, and it is obvious that the jug of milk exists, and it is also obvious that it is not concerned with prayer, since praying to it has no effect on anything. God, on the other hand (I'm talking about the notion of a Theistic God that answers prayers, particularly the Christian one), has a questionable existence, and obviously isn't concerned with prayer either, since the outcome of praying to him is the same as praying to the jug of milk. Since most religious texts, including the Bible, say that God is concerned with prayer and answers it, then there is a contradiction because we clearly see that he does not. He must, therefore, not exist as that religious text describes him.

The simple answer to this is.. Nobody knows.
FUCK hell no. get real gods real.

"get real gods real"? Unless if you can prove that, I would suggest you shut up and quit making a fool of yourself.
Did you not know that cussing saves you a spot in the fiery pits of Hell? Another ignorant hypocritical Christian...
but im not from a christian family....
What the fuck? Can you restate that sentence so it conforms to the basic structure of the English language? All I get out of that is that you have to believe in God for him to be real, and I hope your not saying something as idiotic as that.
I'm sorry, that video was so flawed and had so many holes in it, it just made me mad. He starts off by saying "I'm going to assume you are intelligent". He himself isn't even intelligent:
1. "Christianity.com" is NOT the views of many christians. Certainly not mine, at least. The Bible is the go-to for Christianity, not christianity.com.
2. Saying that yes, no, and wait are the only answers to prayer is stupid. Sure, if you pray for $1000, then those are the only possible answers. But what about if you pray for God to resolve a certain situation? His answer could be to resolve it in any number of ways, one of those being not resolving it at all.
3. A freaking jug of milk hasn't been credited for making cancers disappear, tumors shrink, and any number of miracles. The people who have had these miracles done to them don't bow down and worship a jug of milk, they praise God for it. Wonder why that is?
Note: I'll add more to this later, got to go mm for someone.

There is no proof of god. That is correct. But there is no proof that god doesn't exist, is there? I believe that god exists, and I will stick to it.
Ah time for the good ol' lawn gnome explanation. There may be no proof that God doesn't exist, but that is because you can't 100% prove a negative. There isn't any proof that lawn gnomes don't rape pink flamingos. To prove that the latter situation doesn't happen, one would have to be everywhere at all times watching for lawn gnomes raping pink flamingos, which is impossible. So even though there is no proof that that situation doesn't happen, am I going to live my life on the basis that it could and hide my pink flamingos? No, of course not, because that possibility may not be able to be disproved, but it is so illogical that I choose to live my life based on the assumption that it doesn't happen. The same concept applies to a Theistic God. We may not be able to disprove it, but the idea is so illogical that I choose to live my life based on the assumption that there is not one.
god is fake but God with a capital g is real
I fail to see your reasoning. The only reason that the word "God" is capitalized is because it's a proper noun.
then in the dictionary would it be both god and God in there?
