I agree that a Creator is unnecessary for Berkeley’s theory, though he doesn’t use it as a mere prop as Descartes did. I’m not sure I can embrace ideal monism, but I find it infinitely more plausible than materialist monism. Not sure I am understanding your last point about morality and non-material reality, but I am at low-level mental functioning today.
