If you assume that the designer is in fact God, then I guess you've crossed the line into theology.

In ID who do you assume the designer is?

ID is the claim the design can be detected without any a priori assumptions about the designer.

Its advocates have presented a range of intricately interlocking parts of various organisms to show that they must have been designed by a great intelligence.

I'm doing the opposite, arguing that the RLN is evidence of a stupid designer.

AFAIK, the great majority of IDers assume that God (or Allah) is the designer, but the panspermia enthusiasts, Scientologists, Raelians, et al have a different one in mind
