I didn't say you asked who holds up the sky, "genius". I used that as an example to illustrate how silly your question is. I apologise for not realising you have a problem with reading comprehension.
It doesn't matter how many different iterations of the question you can come up with - you're still positing a false dilemma: either "God" or someone else. First of all, I take issue with the classification of "God" as a person. Beyond that, however, it is still just as silly to ask your question in the way you do, as it is to ask "which is correct: the yolk of an egg is white, or the yolk of an egg are white?"
How about neither?
Or, to be more accurate in view of your restated question: I govern my life, to the extent that I have control over the things within my influence, and as far as that control ties in with external influences including other people governing their lives. Savvy?

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
