Isn't that what used to be called "quibbling"?

The concept both schools of thought share is....that there is/was an intelligent Creator and we are living in a universe of His/Her design.

It is the nature of that Creator....how "human-like" He is, and/or how "God-like" are we....is secondary and a matter of religious faith.

No, it isn't.

Yeah, I know, but I was discussing the concepts they don't share. In particular, the first harmonizes with science and the other rejects science. That is no trivial distinction, and that is why the distinction is not even remotely "quibbling"..
