On the lack of the supernatural
So I am saying that a human cannot judge the creation of a supernatural being.
What evidence do you have that these "supernatural" critters even exist (other than in the human imagination)?

Please read my initial post on this forum. I said if you accept the idea of a supernatural being.
Let's instead accept the idea that all the characters and places in Lord of the Rings are real. That would be a lot more interesting.
Or Star Wars.
The evidence is about the same for all of these, i.e., none.
Speculating on the characteristics of imaginary/literary characters is nothing more than literary criticism, or a thought experiment if you will. It should not be confused with anything for which there is empirical evidence.
If one wants to posit that "God created evolution" I would think it would be first necessary to show that God/god/gods exist(s).
