"ID and creationists are the same. They use the Bible against science"

That is a logical fallacy. Not all ID proponents accept the Bible. The "athiest" mentioned in this article does not accept the Bible; he is a deist.

As I understand the ID concept (and honestly I really haven't read any of their writings), it is a rather vague position that says things as they exist(life) could not have evolved/occurred without a designer involved. Someone who holds to theistic evolution could also be called an ID proponent. By default a creationist could be consider an ID proponent also. However, not all ID proponents are creationists or theistic evolutionists.

Most IDers are religious. They have to be. There is no science there.
