Natural Selection vs. Intelligent Design

 Maybe there are gray areas between the two where the hues of each mix to create a beautiful story of mutual respect and validity. 

Yes I know, this idea is blasphemy to science and could be interpreted as magical thinking.  But it is also true sometimes that experiencing something is a valid place for logical thought and understanding.  Sometimes we don’t need to understand or know everything.  We just need to trust what we understand and build our own intelligent understanding and knowledge from there.  Intangible and experiential evidence has validity also.

I know this is very anti Dawkins but I actually did really appreciate his rationale and understanding that you can’t seize upon gaps of knowledge and magically fill in the spaces with magical thinking and beliefs that require no actual tangible evidence or demonstrate-able understanding.  Who could argue with that.  We can’t use a gap in knowledge as a proof of an unscientific belief.  We can though use our own personal experiences and gained understanding.  A person’s own personal experiences and intelligent ability to process those experiences is also a valid place upon which to build one’s own beliefs and knowledge.
