What you are describing relative to Shirley is what is called in Theology "The God of the Gaps." That is everything that we currently do not have an explanation for is explained by "God". This keeps the conflict between Sci. and Rel. to a minimum but that god is very wimpy and unsatisfying. I like the real ( read real to me) God a lot better.
