an expert for the plaintiffs pointed to examples where its supporters have identified the designer, and the designer is God.

This has been obvious from the beginning of the ID movement. It's nothing but a pathetic subterfuge to insert religion into science classes.

Pathetic is the bleating of the "other" religionists, the evolutionists, whose dogma is being challenged.

The universe is very unclearly understood and may never be understood.

I can very comfortably accept the possibility of ID, no less so than macroevolution, without in any way feeling compelled to understand, never mind what is behind the "intelligence".

The religion of "evolution" is already firmly entrenched in our schools!
Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

If that's the case, evolution will easily withstand this trivial challenge. If it is not, no matter how unlikely it seems to you, humanity will move one step closer to understanding. I just wonder why so many people who don't believe in God as a creative being react the way they do. It should be a whole lot easier to falsify ID than to falsify evolution.

The funny thing is that throughout human history, man has believed in a created world. Only recently has the movement away from creationism sought to explain life in purely naturalistic terms, without the influence of God. IF their theory is correct, they should be thankful to every challenge against it--as it will only make their argument stronger by defeating the challenge. The fact that folks like you respond with disdain to ID challenges shows, in my humble opinion, that you are more attached to the ramifications of evolution than you are to the science supporting it.
