That is not SR, in SR there are no baby's being born all over the world, there are only babies being born within your present moment awareness.

In short, how does a baby create his reality? And what about babies that die soon after they've been born? How the hell did they choose that?

There is no 'they' there is no one outside of your present moment awareness.

To assume that we create EVERYTHING around us is just megalomaniacal and nonsensical.

Only if you believe that the center of existance is your physical mind/body. IN SR you are not a mind/body, you are the container in which everything (in present moment awareness) exists including your own mind/body.
SR is an identity shift, to empower creativity. Quote:

Essential that's SR, but the word god implies religion and a being sitting somewhere on a throne. I prefer the term
Energy Being rather than god or conscsiousness.

Hey sounds like i'm jesus. Even though the theory sounds cool, and here's where i wanted to get on my arguments, doesn't it sound too much like a megalomaniacal stuff?

No, you're still viewing the idea form the limited singular person that you consider you are. You are as much a door, frog, other person, sky as you are the body you seem to have the best control over.

The chances that this theory is just a megalomaniacal self delusional thought are much greater than the possiblity of it ( of me really being god, and having decided to create a huge world just to enter it as an avatar, forget about my divine nature, and have some fun) being true.

Then don't subscribe to it. Many people like the basic idea of SR, but don't want the responsibility or the perception of self, which considered from the
limited human POV is lonliness, which is actually the opposite of a true sense of SR.
SR is the realisation that everything in your awareness is you and that means everything is wonderful because you would never create anything that wasn't. Yes you may create some challenging stuff to test the boundries of your ability to control what you create, but the whole concept is grounded in your desire for experience.
