Its the undeniable evidence of intelligent design which points to an Intelligent Designer.

Two questions:

1. What is the undeniable evidence of intelligent design? What is the proof, other than observation (which is the same level of proof used by believers of the theory of evolution)?

2. Why does the presence of an intelligent designer mean that evolution is wrong?

I would like to take a crack at your questions. If you don't mind.

1. What is the undeniable evidence of intelligent design? What is the proof, other than observation (which is the same level of proof used by believers of the theory of evolution)?

The fact that you're asking this question with the aid of a computer over the internet is the proof. Intelligent Design is inferential through observation and logic.

2. Why does the presence of an intelligent designer mean that evolution is wrong?

The two concepts are mutually exclusive by definition. Unless of course you posit that an intelligent agent e.g. God invented evolution.

Giving examples (of intelligent design pointing to an intelligent designer/creator) feels like pointing out trees in a forest, but here's a couple that I've given before:

- DNA - a miraculous and incredible amount of intelligent information and code in an infinitesimally small building-block of life.

- Your ear - The inner ear has three multi-directional nerve/sensors elegantly designed to help you keep your balance. They're called semicircular canals - three loops of fluid-filled tubes that are attached to the cochlea in the inner ear. They help us maintain our sense of balance. Each of these loops goes in a different direction, so that all three together helps maintain one's equilibrium no matter what angle your body is in.

- Any detailed study of a leaf or your eye or anything in your body or any living thing.

More evidence than the sand of the sea.
