ID is a theory that both are correct, just not completely correct. You have proven to me only that you know little of ID or Darwinism.

I was not aware of this. My understanding of ID, as taught by its major proponents, is that common descent occured, but throughout the process an unspecified "designer" of unspecified origin and nature used an unspecified method to "design" certain specific physical features that could not have evolved without such intervention. If this is an incomplete understanding, please direct me to references that better explain ID.

What I mean is that, as you described, ID proponents believe that the evidence indicates that an intelligence had to have a hand in the development of certain characteristics as well as the wide diversity, among other things. As for my saying they are both Creationist and Evolutionist, it is because they generally believe in scientific principles such as evolution... but they do not believe that RANDOM evolution could have succeeded in what now exists, in the period of time that was available. Thus they believe that it is likely that a Creator was involved in helping guide things. If, where, when, and how such "help" took place are among the things that would naturally be sought to discover if such an intelligence were involved.
