'Predicting' associated kinds of animals are associated does not impress.

OK, why are whales "associated" with goats, cattle and hippos (each separately-created kinds)

Darwin predicted the fossil record would reveal links between these species.

He predicted that if the intermediate forms between apes and people were ever found, they would be found in Africa. Done.

He predicted that there might some day be found fossils intermediate between terrestial mammals and cetaceans. Done

The theory predicts that there will never be a fossil intermediate betweeen a mammal and a bird. So far, so good.

The embryological movement of mammal jaw bones into earbones led to the prediction that fossils might be found with the bones in an intermediate state. Done.

I use ID evidence to predict our high school students will have information to analyze whether darwinism is true,or another discedited paradigm.

That's not a prediction about biology.

Students need to be taught why 99+% of biologists, and 95+% of all scientists, accept evolution, and have for over 100 years.

ID is, in principle, incapable of making any predictions, because **anything** is compatable with a sufficiently-powerful designer.
