No, you don't, because you cannot point to him, you cannot lay out evidence for his existence, and you cannot present reasons why he might be likely.
You believe in him -- you have faith. You do not know.
But the distinction is probably to demanding for your little nugget of a brain to grasp. Shitpost away, and have a nice day ... sucker.

G-C has spent his life groveling to some silly figment of his imagination. He won't change but that doesn't mean you can't make fun of him.

Do you think you escape your actions or inherit them?

How do you inherit your actions if there is no God? It somehow always magically becomes part of you with no soul, with no light or darkness, with just your brain and it becomes part of you. Come on think about it.

Welcome to the forum.

So, since you have this as fact, can I assume you have some evidence(*) you would like to share?
*Testable, verifiable evidence.

This is the part I must not be understanding. I inherited my height from my father and my hair color from my mother. How can I inherit an action?

You inherit an action as that action becomes part of who you are. If it's praiseworthy, you increase in praise and greatness. If it's a bad action, your honor get's diminished and you lose out in greatness. You become more or less good by your deeds. They don't just effect you psychological such that if you think your good but do bad deeds that you don't think too much about, it doesn't effect you negatively. It doesn't matter how guilty or not guilty you are about it, you inherit your acts and become either more good or less good.
And I would like to add, this judgement reckoning to who we are, is properly basic belief of humans, that we take for granted by just knowing ourselves and what it means to be who we are. This is one of the signs of the Lord of the universe who judges and brings souls into account.

Ah, ok. Personally, I don't buy that we are but a sum of our actions. Though we can be judged (in court, not the afterlife) for them (along with motive and intent), they do not make up who we are. Good people are capable of atrocity and vile people are capable of kindness. Motive and intention are far more important than actions.
So, I don't buy the concept of inheriting actions just as I don't buy the concept of a soul or the concept of an all-powerful, loving gawd.

I'm not convinced that you do. You'd have to be able to sense him with your limited senses, and I'm very sure that you can't.
The best you can do is believe God is real.
