I hope this does not all sound like whimsical nonsense, and is at least somewhat plausible. Whatever it is that you believe this may be a way of explaining things for both sides. Continuing with the theory, we arrive at the possibility of coexistence with our creators. During 199,000 years until humans build the first great civilizations, was there a more powerful race living amongst us? If they did create us, it would not appear that we were of much interest to them after this amazing feat. Did the appeal fade away like a
new toy? I for one do not think humans were merely
toys to them. Did they create humans in order to serve them? This is more plausible, but judging from their teachings, I would like to think that it was not a master/slave type of relationship. If service and
labor were the reasons, how many humans would they need to sufficiently fulfill the task? Religion and scientific theory can coexist here as well. If we accept the current timetable, it goes something like this. For 190,000 years, humans were wandering around surviving any way they could after creation. This means we can also accept that ancient myths and legends had plenty of time to occur during the interim. Humans may have lived nearby and even interacted with these people, but most probably left to fend for themselves. Many ancient stories indicate that gods were immortals, or lived for thousands of years. If this were a colony plagued with infertility, and resorted to creating humans to supplement their numbers, they would not have to make very many of their creations to fill the need. If they limited our attainable age,
natural reproduction would have been the means to keep up a good supply. In fact, it is quite possible that humans' enthusiasm for the act created more than were needed. Maybe we became so numerous that many of the continually breeding humans were 'let out to pasture' for 190,000 years.
