However, it appears some people wouldn't be able to function without God "being real" because they've built their whole house on it.
If such people do ever escape, they will probably find that what they built their house on was themselves, being labelled as god. God is a mirror. Where else could something live that a person knows so much about but can't demonstrate the merest existence of but in their mind?
This is probably why they dislike atheists more than they hate other theists. With other theists they can play the my god is bigger than your god card but with atheists there is nothing to swing against. Often you see their arguments that try to bring us down to their level, with nonsense statements like "atheism is a religion too".
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
