And if that other being finds itself in the same shock and awe at my existence that I find at hers, then there must be a third being who is laughing at our expense and who is more primal and knowledgeable than us both!
Let's say I hold the belief that I'm God and that there is nothing unknowable or unknown to me. All things (I know of) are predicated on me. In hierarchical terms, that means I'm at the top of the food chain. But how am I to know I'm not a child to a greater parent?
Maybe I really am the be-all-end-all. Or maybe I just think I am. How is even God to know which is the case?
