What are "Intelligent Design Theory" and "Creation Theory"? What do they each predict? How could either be tested? What hypothetical observations would falsify each of those theories?

What are "Intelligent Design Theory" and "Creation Theory"?
"Intelligent Design Theory" postulates universal design. "Creation Theory" postulates universal creation as explained in the Bible (Genesis) I believe you know this but are being facetious.
What do they each predict?
Intelligent Design Theory predicts that the designed universe will continue as designed.
Creation Theory predicts the same.
How could either be tested?
By designing something complex and then trying to make it evolve the same way.
What hypothetical observations would falsify each of those theories?
If you were able to see a complex universe evolve. For instance, if you saw plants evolve into being without animals, or vice versa, and one somehow evolved itself into the other, like if a blade of grass eventually changed into an atheist.

What hypothetical observations would falsify each of those theories?What about Natural Selection
What hypothetical observation could you propose that would falsify it, if any given observation of nature, is, ipso facto, an observation of Natural Selection.
