The proposal is circular logic, "Reality is a fact and perception is an opinion...says me". So if I see the world as a beautiful thing, wonderful and magical and then I die...was the World beautiful, wonderful and magical? Some could say "No, that's just your perception" but this statement is subjective...it's just that person's opinion that it wasn't those things I thought it was. Just because you didn't see the world as I did...does that mean that you're seeing reality and I'm blinded by my perception? Who is the qualified judge here?
And time and space not needing human qualification or justification is false in my opinion, being human constructs...I doubt they would exist without any of us on the Earth. If there were no Human beings on the Planet...would time still pass or would it stand still? There's no way to test any theory regarding any prediction in this matter.
Loads of fun btw.

Events occur. So there must be time.
We can move from A to B. So there must be space.
Therefore time and space are already proved theories.

Time and space are two different realities.
Neither one needs a beginning or an end. As they are intangible and limitless.
Only humans have the need to attribute boundary, substance and dimension to time and space.

Without attributing quality and substance.
But time and space have no quality or substance.
That is to say, time and space do not actually exist.
Time and space are simply realities.
Movement and duration are obviously relative to time and space.
But more importantly, movement and duration are qualities relative to matter.
As time and space do not actually exist. They therefore did not need to be created and do not need to be explained.
It is only the existence of matter that requires explanation.

Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
This proves time was not a thing before since it that "In the beginning". It would instead say "In the beginning of the universe...". Believe in creation or not, the big bang theory agrees that there was a beginning and beginning has to do with time. You cannot have a beginning if it is infinite or intangible. Genesis 1:1 also proves space was created there. "the heavens and the earth." All of matter and space created there. And it ties in with "In the beginning". Whatever your beliefs, both ideas about our universe have beginnings.

Who or what is god and where did they come from?
Your assertion relies on the existence of God before the creation of the universe.
So presumably God existed in time and space somewhere before he/she/it embarked upon their creative journey.

Now where did God come from? He has always existed and He is the one ultimate cause. The law of cause and effect makes it impossible to not have a creator since the universe needed a cause, and the universe is tangible. Matter cannot be created or destroyed remember. http://www.whatchristianswanttoknow.com/who-created-god-is-god-outside-of-time/

Spacetime as we understand it doesn't exist outside the expansion of the universe, making it as finite as the universe.
It is definitely not intangible either. For instance, as you increase speed, time slows down from your perspective, but not an observer who is stationary in relation to you. Space for instance, compresses in front of your direction of travel as you approach the speed of light, allowing you to reach distances thousands of lightyears away in a matter of years from your perspective. These are very tangible effects.

"For our universe to exist, we need a creator outside of the laws of time who can control and manipulate it. God is timeless and never changing. https://www.ucg.org/bible-study-tools/booklets/lifes-ultimate-question-does-god-exist/a-god-not-bound-by-space-and-time
Now where did God come from? He has always existed and He is the one ultimate cause. The law of cause and effect makes it impossible to not have a creator since the universe needed a cause, and the universe is tangible. Matter cannot be created or destroyed remember."
I like how you denied science and then turned 180 degrees.
Why does a universe need a creator to control it? I'm pretty sure the universe is fine without God.
A common argument against the Big Bang.
"The first law of thermodynamics doesn't actually specify that matter can neither be created nor destroyed, but instead that the total amount of energy in a closed system cannot be created nor destroyed (though it can be changed from one form to another)."
"Quantum mechanics states that, on a very, very tiny scale and for very, very, very short lengths of time, energy can be spontaneously be created and destroyed. Kind of like boiling water, where bubbles spontaneously appear and burst, energy - in the form of particles - can spontaneously appear from the void of spacetime, exist for a tremendously short amount of time, and disappear again."
