ID, like your post, is intrinsic to discussions of theology. It is my opinion that we are setting up a false dichotomy when we pit religion against science. God is real. The physical universe is real. Deal with it. The two are not sepearate worlds and were not meant to be. Nor is it reasonable to place the two into separate little baggies as if this somehow facilitates education. Of all things, science ought to be open to every manner and means of inquiry. It does not have the privilege of saying, "This might lead to God, therefore it is not scientific."
This website says they promote the scientific evidence of intelligent design, not religious theories.
The only problem with ID being intrinsic to discussion of theology is this: People are pushing for ID to be taught in the public schools either alongside evolution or as a replacement for it. Whether or not I personally may agree with it, case law in this country is quite clear about keeping religion out of the public classroom.
