I don't think Intelligent Design will go away because of reticule. Life is found to be more complex than less every year it is examined. Thus those arguing against Intelligent Design and the obvious complexity will find it harder and harder to maintain the facade that chance created everything. The overwhelming evidence of complexity will overwhelm evolution IMHO probably at the molecular level. It is only a matter of time.

As far as trying to use religion to reticule intelligent design, it is only a feeble attempt to plug the leak in a crumbling sea wall dam.

Damn! - a new use for a reticule.

I'm afraid you have it backwards. Every year more is understood and explained and more information reveals more support for Evolution.

Just because you cannot, or will not try to, understand it doesn't make it more complicated.

In fact, it's going to hell in a handbag.

ID has yet to show that nature cannot and does not produce specified complexity. Without the assumption that only intelligence can produce SC, ID hasn't a leg to stand on. By itself, specified complexity is not enough to show the inability of nature to have produced all we see nor give IDists the ability to recognize design.

Because of a gun sight?

"I don't think Intelligent Design will go away because of reticule."

=====================================

Oh, you're probably right. Reticules have little to do with science.

Here's a reticule. I can't see the connection:

"ridicule" not "reticule"
