God is defined as the greatest conceivable being. If he exists in understanding alone like some would believe(since there is no proof of Jesus inheritence) and does not exist in reality, its self contradicting. If he exists in reality, than where is he? If my reality states he does not exist, than he cant be the greatest conceivable being(it contradicts).If you believe something that exists in reality as well as understanding is greater than something which exists in understanding alone,than how could it if you suppose that existence is based on attributes or the perfection of a thing, its basically false.

Reality is not just the "visible world". We are surrounded by and in permanent interaction with an "invisible world" of forces and energies, on which we depend and without which this physical world would not be complete. I mean specifically the forces of gravity, waves, etc..
We are not able to explain or understand these forces and energies either. We do believe in them however because of their manifestation.

Yes God should exist in your reality as well as in your understanding.
The problem is in how do your define God? If you are a believer God as a supreme being that requires a faith (none proof) to accept his existence because of faith there is no way to prove or disprove his existence. In the realm of imagination if God exist in the eye of the believer then he carries the feel of being real. T.V. has proven how this can be true. When you indoctrinate a person from birth of the existence of a deity called God it is even harder to convince a person of the none existence of a God. Logic and reason no longer has anything to do with it. This is a form of societal brain washing and many of us don't break free from the orbit of this childhood indoctrination.
Of course there is no such thing as a God. We have many arguments that will slam the beliefs of the religious but you will never get them to see the truth. The mind of the religious has already been usurped. To get a person that is indoctrinated into the fire and brim stone hell concept to see logic and truth will take the destruction of this world to see just how their very own belief brought hell on this earth.
If you haven’t realized it yet governments use the same fear tactics to control its people. If you get out of line the will come and take you away if not beat or kill you. We all know the IRS is illegal but we fear them so keep we giving them our money without question. The religious is the most controllable person on the planet. That is why the tyranny of the powerful gets rid of the thinkers first.

If you wrote a book, and one of your characters claimed you did not exist, as he couldn't perceive you within his story, would that negate your existence?
I believe in God because I have received myself, and heard hundreds of stories of, answered prayer. Also, I cannot believe that the complexity of this world came from nothing, therefore there must have been some intelligent creator.
(I don't particularly feel like arguing creation, but that is one reason why I believe in God. Let's stick to the point here, friends.)
You know the wind simile? Can't see it, can't always feel it, but shore can see the effect: just ask any Florida resident!
There does come a point when proving or disproving God's existance via logic, where you simply must choose to believe. Now that's not blind faith. You can back up your choice with and logic, either way. But if you never make a choice, you are capable of debating the point from neither side forever. A skeptic is following a belief system too.

Take a careful look all around you. He is in everything, as He has created everything. The Big Bang Theory and Evolution leave a lot to be desired, and cannot explain the complexities of everything from our body systems to the solar system. It is called a belief for a reason. Even though you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. As the old cliche goes ... you cannot see the wind, but you obviously know it is there because you see its effects.

You must understand
what is meant by the word God to experience the reality. Your perception is limited by what you cannot imagine, so you're assuming God must not exist. Have you experienced all that is, and can therefore determine that God is not part of the larger equation?
Have you reached the peak of
understanding, and have nothing more to learn?

God does not exist in reality God is reality. Everything you can touch, see, smell, taste, hear or sense otherwise is no
more that a thought from the essence of God that has manifested into a comprehended physical reality

The greatest conceivable universe would be one which exists in all its complexity and variety without a creator, so therefore there cannot be a creator.

In the interests of good order and for the sake of those of us
who are not as linguistic as you, could you make your question more comprehensible?
