Actually, ID doesn't say anything about who the designer is. There are ID scientists from a variety of religions. Of course that probably wasn't in the talking points from Darwinian Fundie HQ.

Except for the fact that it was created specifically to try and sneak Creation Science past the Constitution. Nice try, but the history doesn't bear out your assertion.

Creation Science past the Constitution

Why would one have to sneak creation science past the Constitution?

Have you any proof of this assertion?

ID and evolution are not antithetical at all. ID proposes that DNA encodes processes that express coordinated (irreducibly complex) mechanisms that cope with a wide range of environmental stresses in a way that that is statistically incompatible with accidental arrangement. Environmental stresses do select the specific sequences of DNA that generate individuals of the species that can survive - it is just that the sequences encode expressions of interrelated complex processes and structures that accident could not have produced in the amount of time that we believe passed between the origin of a habitable Earth (liquid water on its surface) and the appearance of life.
