Interesting question.  I would hope that one would explore both possibilities simultaneously and then in some way meld them into a workable hypothesis.  Hegel clearly stated that one needs to take the thesis, stand it on its head to find the antithesis, and then meld both into a synthesis.  This clearly illustrates that one position or another are NOT the sole answers.  One needs to move to another plateau.

Belive both of them or weigh them?
