"Organized matter is physical evidence of intelligent design."

Or it is just evidence that matter is well organized. Neither idea can be properly examined by science. Science is agnostic as to the existence of a designer, by necessity.

"Besides, science is known for making assumptions and exploring things for which there is currently no "physical evidence."

To the extent that a scientist makes assumptions and posits hypothesis's that have no physical evidence, they are NOT doing science.

You and a good many others say so often and with a great deal of certitude, but I have no reason to believe this is truly the case. On what basis do you make this sweeping claim? Is this something you've taught yourself? Is it "intuitive?" For that matter is it a "falsifiable" claim?

You want the hands of science tied by a philosphy. Fine. But don't expect the rest of the world to follow suit.
