Parmenides and Acquineas would answer that God exists without or without
our knowledge. The proof, then, is not really of God's existence per se
so much as it is of our capacity to know of God's existence. That is, to
have the rational power of knowing the non-rational. Very ancient Greek
that has become woven tightly and inseparably into our psyche. Even,
Acquineas says that ultimately a person must take that leap of faith, of
believing in the unbelievable or non-believable. Of course, if you were
Voltaire, you would say, "if there was no God, Man would have created
him."
Make it a good day.
