Small post Clarifying a common fallacy here.
I have read numerous posts saying that a creator has to be at least as complex and frequently more complexed than the things being created. It is not so, and surprisingly, no one has corrected it()Unless I am wrong).

For example, we have created a game like chess. Just define the rules. whether or not we understand the complications, it is certainly possible to create somethign more complex.

For instance, say, the process of creating the universe is to just assign properties to certain particles and let them go off in whatever direction there after. A case where we can create complex stuff, even though we have the ability to assign properties one by one, is obvious.

It is difficult for me to describe, but I am sure many will see the flaw of their logic here.

So God can be as complex, more or less complex, or more or less improbable than the universe, or that in which arose in itself. We, including me, do not know.
