"I definitely believe that there is order in the universe that is derived from outside spacio-temporal being, and forces that are unseen, purposeful and beyond our intellectual grasp"

It is definitely possible that there are more "advanced" beings in some realm of existence.

"That is too extreme for me"

Me, too. But various ideas of fairies have informed the myths of many many cultures...

"Jinnee (s) or Jinn (p) - fairies in Arabian mythology, the offspring of fire. They reproduce like human beings, and are lead by a race of kings named Suleyman, one of whom “built the pyramids.” Their chief abode is the mountain Kâf, and they appear to men under the forms of serpents, dogs, cats, monsters, or even human beings, and become invisible at pleasure. The evil jinn are hideously ugly, but the good are exquisitely beautiful. According to fable, they were created from fire two thousand years before Adam was made of earth."
