Each and every living object is continutally creating something new in reality, most noticably at the human level in created works of art and literature, less noticably in human and animal level created works of industry or agriculture, and far less noticably at human, animal, and lesser living levels in things like living chemical processes.
The obvious fact is that all living matter is essentially "God-like" in the creation department.
Making something out of nothing, however, is impossible in that reality within which created reality continues to be created -- by you, me and that living tree.
In short, your "created reality" argument has no connection to transcendental ... whatevers ... that don't exist.
