Intelligent design is not a distinctly "Christian" idea. It just happens to agreee with Christian teaching.

All the ID proponents I've heard about where Christian. No athiests to be found. Combined with the claims of the Dover school board that specically promoted ID for Christian witnessing, and the supporters of DI who are Christian activists. And, the Wedge document itself.

Anyone who claims ID is not a Judeo/Christian movement is fooling themselves.

That stands to reason since ID agrees with Christian teaching. How about Aristotle? Is he a Christian, too? More to the point, what is distinctly "Christian" about the idea that organized matter may be best understood from the standpoint of intelligent design?

If there are people who are attempting to establish strictly Christian public schools, then they are misguided and should be opposed even by law, because the law prohibits favoring the establishment of any particular religion. Public schools are for everyone, including atheists, whose ideas are often valuable and whose contributions to science have been significant.
