When do we get to something that can bee seen without a microscope?
There are plenty of those as well. It may be a little technical, but you can see some examples here.
If evolution is a scientific fact that precludes any type of intelligent design then it is past time for the high priests of that view to say it and let the chips fall where they may.
Evolution can never preclude intelligent design. In fact, intelligent design cannot be falsified by science as it's beyond its scope. That, in turn, also means that Intelligent Design (as it is presented now) isn't science. This is why scientist go wild when people try to inject it into science classes.

ID postulates irreducible complexity. You can falsify IC by construction or deconstruction. Falsify away.

Do you not see how those statements contradict each other? You say, on one hand that intelligent cannot preclude intelligent design and, on the other hand, since it can't it isn't "science" and should hold be withheld from any discussion. It seems to me that in the 3rd century the fact that the earth could not be shown to be round, your reasoning would have precluded any speculation that it may be true.
