It's not an if to me. I know there is a God. For the sake of argument, I entertained your theory but to me there is no doubt. I am responding to that fact in the most appropiate way possible, by taking up my cross and following Him.
The way I know God is real, most of all, is because of love. When I came to know God is there, He showed me He had always been there my entire life, taking care of me. Giving me good things and keeping me out of trouble. He loved me first, and now I am returning the favor.
Because I had halluncinated before and it was nothing like that.

I've tried my utmost to know who God is, and if He is letting me be fooled, then He obviously has no interest in me. In that case, it really doesn't matter. If God is evil it really doesn't matter. If there is no God it really doesn't matter.
So, then it doesn't really matter what you do...
And if there isn't a God, which I see being most probable, then you will have wasted your one and only life to a bunch of bullshit...
