Surely the onus is on you to show that a Creator couldn't be less complex?

No it isn't. Whenever we look at something that has actually been designed or created, as opposed to something that has evolved over millions of years by natural selection or formed by billions of years in the universe, we always find that the designer is an incredibly complex being. We simply have no experience of anything that is known to have been designed except by a highly complex designer. So as evidence points to creations being created by entities more complex than the creation itself, until an exception to this comes along it is the standard. Can you think of an example where the creation is more complex than the creator?
