(1) My discussion with a theist today settled on the issue whether to even accept that a “higher domain” creates a “lower domain” for a good purpose. My argument is: why waste reality?
(2) There is a somewhat false duality between creation and discovery: whether the performer determines the result, or the object determines the result, can be relative to the modeling faculty of the observer. And since we as observers and simultaneously “the object” have free will, from our perspective we are in any case rather discovered than created. And as long as God does not act upon the discovery, it is inconsequential.
