Not testable? Evolutionary scientists go into their laboratories every day to test their theories. For example, evolutionary theory predicts patterns of genetic similarity that indicate common ancestry. If we discovered that species predicted to be closely related were not similar genetically, then our theory would be falsified. If there were no genetic similarity between humans and other primates, this would disprove the theory of primate evolution.
How often do the proponents of ID go into their laboratories to test their predictions about how exactly the Intelligent Designer creates "irreducibly complex" mechanisms? Isn't the answer obvious? They never do this, because they have no testable theory at all about exactly when, where, and how the Intelligent Designer does his work.

For all their hard work, evolutionary scientists have not been able to prove evolution. Commonality of design and genetic similarity doesn't prove evolution.
It's not the science ID'ers call into question. It's the conclusions evolutionists wrongly make.
