I strongly suspect the command 'to be fruitful and multiply (and have dominion)' did not come from the maker of all things but rather from something of an early human writer writing either his own thoughts or his thoughts as influenced by the destroyer of all things.

Those words are often credited to Moses but Moses likely is a fictional character and the ancient Hebrews did not have a sophisticated written language at the time Moses supposedly lived so those words were likely penned by King David or someone about the time of King David. So who are the Psalms actually praising?
