Back in the halcyon days of pens and typewriters that wrote on paper (not many of us are still around that are old enough to recall that period in history), G-d (hyphenated) was used. Maimonides, in his codification of Jewish law (12th century), states that G-d's Name should not be written (in full) and subsequently destroyed. There is no reason to maintain this practice when writing in "air" as on a computer. I do it out of habit, a practice I am loathe to discontinue, as I still have pens and paper (yes, even a typewriter) left from the old days.

I would ask for understanding on who He is.

Also This not pronouncing the name of God thing. Totally in error and you should be following scripture which tells you to praise his Name rather than the dictates of Man.

Side note. God is not his name. It's What he is. YHVH Elohim

Elohim being what he is, YHVH being his name.

"I'm an idiot, so I have nothing enlightening to say to You. So can I just sit here and listen while you rule the Universe?"

Sometimes, the best way we can learn is by listening instead of talking.

My class had this question asked to them, where the majority asked "What is the meaning of life" or "what happens when we die"

Personally I would like to know how god came into existence. Who created him etc.

(p.s. you forgot to spellcheck; the word is spelled GOD.)
