A designer and an initial creator are different things. The designer is intimately involved in each and every new creature, rock, tree that exists. The creator however sets the universe in motion and let's natural processes take over which is what I see. Evolution, specifically the theory of evolution, doesn't deal with abiogenesis or the Big Bang. My moral setup and values are beliefs, not observations and as such based on the Bible. I don't believe in the historical and scientific aspects of the Bible. These sections teach lessons by allegory, I don't believe Methuselah lived nine hundred years. I do believe in a historical Jesus whose life and teachings define Christianity.

This video is one of many examples of biologists taking on the challenge of Dr. Behe's claims.

But evolution cannot have a goal – is unguided and blind. A creator that sets things in motion with a purpose and plan does not conform with the theory of evolution. Furthermore, as a Christian you do believe in a designer who ‘is intimately involved in each and every new creature’.

As to your presentation (Boston? Really?) – it’s funny that you think Matzke (a militant atheist) has falsified ID – as you think ID can’t be falsified…He presented a ‘just-so’ ‘nature-did-it’ story. Possible and probable are not the same. His claim that ID does not do research is false – see here. In fact, some of Behe’s latest predictions are being shown as true.
