How do you get from “aliens designed humans” to the “existence of a supernatural entity”?
Easy! The creator is always superior to the creation, by definition. “Supernatural,” as I pointed out, only means that the entity is above (”super”)—that is, excepted from or not bound by-—nature (the “natural” forces that bind us, the created).
Obviously, who/whatever created us is not bound by the same natural forces that bind us, because we haven’t been able to create at the same level.
So, if aliens created humans, by definition those aliens had to have power beyond what we have and had to be above (not bound by) the natural forces that bind us, the created.
So, if in fact aliens created humans, those aliens would have to be supernatural entities compared to us and our nature.
By definition, they would have to have more power than that possessed by what they created.

Your conclusion doesn't follow from your premise.

"Obviously, who/whatever created us is not bound by the same natural forces that bind us, because we havent been able to create at the same level."
I don't see anything obvious about this statement at all. Just because WE haven't been able to create at the same level, doesn't mean it's not possible within the boundaries of the natural laws of the universe. Think about all the things that we weren't able to do 2000 years ago, compared to what we can do in the present day. Now, think about what a race of super intelligent aliens could do with, say, 500,000 years of advanced technology to work with?
