Thank you for your reply, Leapfrog. You at least attempted to understand the basis for my question -- not argument. Unfortunately, you misunderstood my question. It is not as you put it, but rather, "How do the flaws we see all around us in this world reconcile with the theory of ID on a scientific, not religious basis?"
Here is where I fail to understand the debate. "Intelligent Design" apparently has some meaning other than implied religious foundations.
I look forward to talking with you in the future on how religion and science coincide.
