It's that sort of thinking that would have eliminated the need to discover microscopic life. Ever heard of the (long discredited) "active principle" concept? It was an ideological cul-de-sac just like Intelligent Design. Fortunately, logical men like Louis Pasteur refused to accept that concept as a be-all, end-all answer for difficult questions and looked closer at the matter. It was from his Pasteur's refusal to accept pseudoscience as an answer that we now understand how microscopic organisms play a role in the world.
That's what scientists do. They don't accept nebulous answers. They keep looking, even when others insist there is no need to look further.
Leave science to answer "how" and theology to answer "why." Do not mix.
