If you were a Superior Being and you have two strategies which are:

1. Reveal yourself (establish your existence)
2. Don't reveal yourself (don't establish your existence)

And if you were a person and you have two strategies which are:

1. Don't believe in God's existence
2. Believe in God's existence

And each player is to achieve a goal which is:

SB:

[1] Primary goal - wants P to to believe in his existence

[2] Secondary goal - prefers not to reveal yourself

P:

[1] Primary goal -wants belief (or nonbelief) in SB's existence confirmed by evidence (or lack thereof)

[2] Secondary goal - prefers to believe in SB's existence

As either player how would you play out this game?
