Given the myriad of evidence supporting evolution, scientists accept it as fact.

So do I, almost. But there is a group of people who are using evolution as a weapon to destroy any notion of God and then morality. They shove it down other people's throats as a way to kill their religion. It is these people using a scientific theory like evolution as part of their agendas that I don't like.
I also think it is wrong for these scientists to be so close-minded to alternative explanations or modified descriptions of evolution. That's unscientific! As long as these theories can be tested in some rigorous way with quantifiable results they should consider it.
I don't understand the attacks on Intelligent Design. From what I understand, all they are saying is that the number of random mutations required to get the complexity of today is in question. It's a purely mathematical argument that could be easily modeled and tested. Just because the Creationists have taken it as a pet cause to defend themselves shouldn't discredit the hypothesis itself. If you were a politician, you would embrace it, because it would be a happy medium where evolution could co-exist with spirituality.
