Nuh uh. Obviously, if I created a practically infinite universe with trillions of planets, from a point of zero size, and I brought even TIME into existence, I'd pick one planet, populate it with bald big-brained monkeys, give them instincts to do things like have sex, and then get upset when they ignored my directives only to have sex in certain ways and under certain conditions.

I'd TOTALLY need a percentage of those monkeys to act as my ambassadors and explain my will to the other monkeys, cuz, you know, I'd be busy creating an eternal punishment of fire and anguish for those monkeys who were unwise enough to follow the instincts I gave them.

Then I'd pick SOME of the monkeys, and help them conquer (or escape from) some of the other monkeys. Cuz. . . you know. . .FUCK those other monkeys.
