“First of all", it’s called evolution, not “Darwinism”. That’s like calling ID “Creationism”.

I think you are wrong. The thing that people nowadays call evolution is Darwinism or neo-Darwinism. All share natural selection as the driving force which produced the variety of life forms we observe today.

It's a mild pejorative in a scientific context, just like calling ID "Creationism". Creationism shares at least the same similarities with ID that you say Darwinism shares with evolution. If a respectful word is used for one, it should be used for both.
