Aside from the fact that this theory only raises more questions such as how did the creator came into existence, it also doesn't really make the creator very powerful. He only had to "pull the switch" which would "start off" the universe. From that point on everything would only follow the laws of physics and the universe became more and more complicated. So if that's the creator you believe exists, you might as well ignore him and get on with your life.
Really?...i happen to believe that the creator who can determine all the laws before hand,spark the light and watch the universe unfold exactly according to IT's plans is a hellavulot more "powerfull",not to mention wiser than the creator who's a complete control freak and throws a hissy fit when things dont turn out exactly the way he plans them...
