Here are your two statements:

HerrBlucher: "Yes, even “intelligent” people like Richard Dawkins believe in Intelligent Design, its just that they attibute it to aliens from another planet, and not God. LOL!"

HerrBlucher: "I never said the IDrs mention a Christian God, they just mention an intelligence behind Creation. That is the prime foundation on which all __monotheistic religions__ are built.

See the problem?

You'd have been better off stopping after that first sentence above, because in your second sentence you admit that _you believe_ that the "I D Movement" people are pushing "a religion" focusing on "one God".

The ID Movement itself denies any such thing.

Wow, talk about jumping to conclusions, yikes!

I was making fun of Dawkins squirmy backtracking in "Expelled", pushing the problem of irreducible complexity off earth and on to some other planet. He squirmed and proposed this scenario because he is unable to even allow the alternative scenario of a supernatural intelligence behind creation.

From what I know of ID, the goal is to simply show that Chance + Time cannot answer what we scientifically observe in the universe. After that you are on your own....God, Gods, reincarnation, afterlife, whatever etc.
