    Ok so if you are a creationist, I am assuming 2 things:
    1. "God" is said creator
    2. You believe "God" has the ability to create humans

    Ok so if this is true, then why did "god" give humans the ability to re-create?
    "God" is supposed to be omnipotent, which means it would be no problem for him to continue to create more. Also, as said in the bible "God" has a reason for doing everything.

    NOTE: Simply saying "he has reasons" will be reported as spam.

    Well, that's quite a question. Perhaps "God" wanted to observe us as we grew on our own? Much like a child and his/her parents. Maybe "God" wanted us to adapt and persist without his help. After all, humans are good at adapting and surviving, aren't they?

    Letting something adapt by itself isn't a very parent like attribute.

    Not at a young age it isn't. But as a child grows older, there is a point at which it must learn on it's own. I know my suggestion must be faulty in some way, but I can provide no other logical explanation for what you are asking.

    Here's a premise:

    -God is all loving
    -God made man in His image

    Therefore, when man was originally created, man must have also been loving, and in God's image. Instead of God creating more men, he allowed men to recreate in order to show love. The whole reason I believe God created us in the first place is to show His love to something.

    'God' is lazy.
    Could you imagine having created billions of humans?
    'God' pretty much gave himself a free ride. He sits on his magic carpet watching the boob-tube with a direct feed to Earth all day. With free service!
    Every now and then he'll see a problem, and he'll try to edit the configuration on his boob-tube, but 'God' isn't very tech-savvy, so he just puts it off and waits for us to solve our own problems.
