RE: Can the Universe Exist without consciousness?

I am an atheist through and through, so please do not take what I'm about to say the wrong way, I'm simply about to play devil's advocate.

If you say that something can exist without the need to prove it, then why can't God exist without us proving that he/she/whatever does?
