Evolution is also, NOT scientific. At least, if ID isn't.

Exactly how is Evolution not scientific? ID cannot be used to predict anything, and is not falsifiable. The same cannot be said of Evolution.

Predict something with evolution. Go ahead.

I'll wait until I grow an extra thumb if you like.

Evolution is ALSO not scientific in the fact that it is NOT OBSERVABLE. Even in a lab setting, we have not witnessed one species change into another.

Lack of an observation makes it merely an idea. Just like unicorns.

HOWEVER: ID has as much bearing as evolution does in this debate. We can easily see how it is possible to form molecules into life. And also to engineer said life. We know this because we know that we are in fact made OF molecules. By observation. There at least is a theory of how to go about forming life via engineering.
