Our creator is God, who (made us in his image?) is just a "person" like anyone else in a different but interconnected dimension (spiritual realm) of a very large universe.
In this dimension even creators have to adhere to rules of their time and place against what they want.
Imagine that there is a political contest to create a model for an ideal world, and you build a train table and fill it with grass and trees, rivers and mountains, oceans, and people it with all sorts of critters.
And you make it really awesome, but your competition comes around and fucks with it. They add some terrible critters from their own tables and you complain but the judges don't care. Meanwhile you aren't allowed to clean it up because the competition is from a powerful family and they are better friends with the judges.
So you bid your time and work behind the scenes to dethrone the judges. And eventually you do but there has been a lot of damage to your perfect world.
You = God
train table = Earth
Competition = other star clusters
Judges = Drago Constellation
your victory = 2023
