It remains a mystery as to how intelligence must have always existed if it's true that nothing could exist without it's help. It's not explained by Gods or magic either by the way. Those of us who don't believe everything in the universe but life is dead are likely to be accused of creationism, but all of them as well are required to believe that Gods and magic came from nothing, as otherwise they'd be neither godlike nor magical. Just being mysterious doesn't seem to fill their teapot.
