Atheists: If subjectivity is the only thing that exists, how can we prove anything...

...objective? I have encountered various philosophies concerning this and I would like your comments. Without subjective awareness, it would seem that nothing objective would exist. After all, without an observer, an object has no qualities such as sound, texture, smell, taste, or any other properties that are registered by the senses once an observer is present. Given that, it would seem that subjectivity is primary in the understanding of the "outside" world (which doesn't seem to exist without your presence). This brings me to the subject of a god. If subjectivity is primary and there really is no objectivity, it would seem that if there were a god, it would be found within - within your very self. And if this is true, how could it be proven? It is somewhat of a conundrum to be sure. Thanks for you comments.
