If you believe in the above then Intelligent Design certainly is science. When we look at the Sistine Chapel ceiling no one would think that it arose by the random fall (upwards yet!) of buckets of paint. We make the logical conclusion that an intelligent designer, a great artist painted it. While the painting itself does not tell us who the designer is, we clearly know that there was an intelligent designer behind it.

Creationists love to make the comparison between human art and the universe. I can name a couple of differences between the Sistine Chapel and the universe, even right off the top of my head and without having a picture of the Sistine Chapel in front of me!

I could probably name a few hundred also. However, the universe, by the judgement of scientists was indeed designed and the only alternative given by the atheists is the ridiculous infinite universe theory. This of course is Art Bell stuff, not science since no such thing has ever been observed and science is about observations. Complexity + specificity + purpose = Intellgent design in the Universe, in paintings, in life.
