Evolution (the hypothesis) is changing as we learn more of genetics and biochem..I do not think evolution will ultimately be the strong force for biodiversity.
Intelligent design would not rule out evolution for variation within species, but, evolution seems to have weakness in explaining major new species which are not able to reproduce with progenitors. Are we to believe that such changes must produce offspring of both sexes at the same moment.
much like BOHEM's theory of a Holographic universe which is unfolding thru time..intellegent design may be unfolding thru time..it would explain for me at least major changes in bio diversity in very short geologic time periods.. so no I do not refute evolution I just think that it may not be the primary vehicle for major change.

Again, it appears as though you labor under a number of misconceptions regarding the theory of evolution. You may be correct in that evolution may fall by the wayside, but I find it unlikely. However, should evolution ever be falsified beyond recoverability, I will cheerfully abandon it. Just remember that ID must stand or fall on its own merits.
As for your second point, try Methods of Speciation (PDF) or ring species.
