I don’t believe it is self-defeating. Why do you say so?

I think God exists inside of us, outside of us, and even if we didn’t exist.

Relativism (of the sort we are discussing) is inherently self-defeating because generally speaking no statement of relativism can stand on its own merit.

And God existed outside of us first, since (as you describe) we are the creation and He is the Creator.
