Let's start with wealth, which is where my line of thought began. There is no such thing as wealth "creation". Wealth cannot be created. It can only be taken. We take wealth from the Earth, and then we reformulate it into a form that is only of relevance to us. A fish cannot use our money. A bird cannot use our money. A snake cannot use our money. So, we have effectively transferred the wealth of the Earth into a domain in which it is only available to us.
This is not unique. All creatures take wealth and hold onto it, and this is never permanent. A fruit tree drinks from the soil and captures nutrients. For a time, this wealth is available only to the tree, captured within its cells. But then it bears fruits, and those fruits are released and taken by others. And so, the wealth once captured by the tree is liberated. The tree does not create the fruits, but reformulates the wealth it has taken from the Earth into the form of fruits.
So, we should disabuse ourselves of the notion that we have creative powers. In general, human beings are destructive. We can only destroy things and repackage their constituent parts. One does not create a meal. One prepares a meal. We are preparers. We do not bring anything into existence, but we prepare and reformulate things that are already in existence.
We can extrapolate this concept and postulate that it is not possible - ever - to create, and that - even at the cosmic level - the greatest things we can witness were not created but only reformulated from other things. The greater the ability to reformulate, the more impressive and dramatic an act of reformulation can be. We should assume that there are wills at work, at levels much greater than us, that are responsible for these dramatic acts of reformulation.
Taken to the extreme, the greatest ability to reformulate could be regarded as the ability to reformulate nothingness into somethingness - non-existence into existence. Still, this is not an act of creation, but an act of reformulation. One could argue that existence and non-existence are not discretely different things, but are two different manifestations of some common underlying thing... that existence is merely a different reformulation of non-existence. They may be opposites of one another, as a smile is to a frown, but they are manifested upon the same face, as it were.
We should not be so naive as to assume that there are no intelligent life forms beyond humans. An atheist should not be so naive as to assume that there are no powers or intelligences greater than us - powers so great by comparison that they might be regarded as "god-like". And a monotheist should not be so naive as to assume that there is only one great intelligence above us -- there is likely an endless supply.
