Without a human to speak for it, without a book.
Yet God is the witness to all things by which you exist through his perception and has never been absent so as the need to show up (yes he can become more apparent to someone but none the less, to a degree will remain hidden as he is beyond all vision), and is the proof of what everything is, so as to need a proof for him (which he does have and has plenty of).
"God is the witness" then let him show up and witness. "You exist through his perception" -- are you fucking kidding me? Do you exist through the Tooth Fairy's perception? Do you exist because Santa Claus wrote that you're a "good boy" on his list? Do you exist because Batman gave you a secret decoder ring? Of course not. I exist without the "perception" of your imaginary friend. If your imaginary friend is "beyond all vision" then it is not omnipotent. Claiming that your personal "Harvey" big blue invisible rabbit is the proof of what everything is - well, that's kind of scary, although it might feel good for you to say so. MY "everything that is" is not an invisible blue rabbit. If your big blue rabbit has proof, then it can provide proof. Without you. If it can't, it doesn't exist. And you are wasting your life.
