You keep it alive.
I'll take it a step further. There is no factual distinction between an omnipotent, omnipresent and omnibenevolent God, and that God which is wholly illusory and an artifact of the human subjective experience.
God has no form, no weight, no definable physical characteristics. One cannot quantify God by reduction.
Such a being would continue to exist even as only a fantasy in the minds of believers, and sustain no measurable loss against its existence or potency.
And yet entertaining such thoughts are apocryphal to true believers.
If there were factual distinction between the two there would be no more faith. There would be no more unbelievers.
