I never said he created the past (as in the events themselves). I merely said he created time with an infinite past. He created the necessary time for the events to happen.

Think of it this way.
The Universe is a huge school wall on which a mural is about to be painted. The children about to paint them represent the souls or people who live out their lives (including supernatural entities like the DO). The painting they make is history. Assume they are making a painting of a story so that it is to be read from left to right. In this case moving along the wall represents moving through time, the left side representing the past, the right future.
Now, the Creator is the guy who builds the wall (in that the Creator makes time and space). If you stretch my analogy you have to assume he "makes the children" as well , but that's beside the point. Now the guy who builds the wall, builds it in both directions (assume the wall is infinitely long in both directions) and leaves space for the children to fill it in.
Similarly when the Creator makes time, he creates it so that their is an infinite past, in which he leaves the "children, i.e. souls, DO etc. to fill it in. That does not mean he controls them.

Think of it another way if its easier to understand. The wheel is turning through all the ages right? If there was a moment of creation that began the turning of the wheel, then what would have happened? Presumably, the cosmos would have formed, the first humans would have come up and started to build etc. Now when the wheel completes turning one full revolution (7 ages) then it has to come back to this point. So what? does the world get recreated every 7 ages?????
But regardless of this way of analysing it, my earlier logic still stands.

So to recap,

The Creator, can create time. He creates time so that there is an infinite past. In that infinite past events (such as the DO trying to escape) happen independent of the creator. The creator doesn't make them happen, or "write" their history or "control" events, he merely provides the necessary time for them to happen (maybe in an infinite past).Remember he is OUTSIDE of time. For him, there is no concept of time, hence no "moment" of creation.
