Perhaps that is because of how we define "God". Whether we choose to refer to "God" or "Creator" it applies to the epitome of all truth, love and justice, i.e "good". The opposite of all selfishness, pride, lies or deception, i.e "evil". If we "look within" we inevitably fall into the trap/deception of becoming our own 'god'. If we look outside of our self we look to the true "Creator" the true source of all life for all else - both in the spiritual and physical sense. We have to be honest with ourselves - we are not this "perfection". That realm belongs to the Creator alone. The real Creator cannot deny him/her self, cannot act contrary to the "perfection" of "God the Creator" of life. There cannot exist simultaneously good and evil or life and death and be "true" or truly be, "I AM". Such would annilhilate or destroy itself. There are many "wanna be gods" and "wanna be lords". Tessa names them "dominators" which is only one characteristic of them. To have that trait ruling "within" the soul would ultimately destroy itself, the rest of humanity and the world. No one of us created creatures can substitute for the True Creator". Not any thing of the creation can be the Creator. Are we truly living the life the Creator intended for us to live? It's a matter for self-examination and introspection - between each soul and the Creator.
