ID actually is a very good trick to teach creationism. So good that the Discovery Institute wrote about it in their "wedge" document several years ago. Their goal being to corrupt science into teaching about God.

I'm only amazed that science hasn't yet fully counter attacked by going after apparent contradictions in the Bible. The Noah flood story is especially ripe for scientists to find "holes", like ID claims to have found in Evolution.

IDers are kicking at a rattle snake, and it's rattling. It just hasn't struck back yet. It's just too bad that the real victims will be the believers that will reject their faith in the process of the fight.

It's too bad about this whole mess. There are so many more constructive things that Christians could occupy themselves with than attempting to destroy science.

Now, now. Christians have done as much to advance science as any other faith or lack thereof. That ain't gonna stop just because God doesn't act the way you want Him to.

Here is a link that gives answers to frequently asked questions:

I would suggest that you read through each for a better understanding of design. Notice that the recent advances have occurred from the 80's to the present. Have you ever heard of Dembski's explanatory filter?
