ID even makes certain predictions (if their hypothesis is true ): (1) High information content machine-like irreducibly complex structures will be found.
(2) Forms will be found in the fossil record that appear suddenly and without any precursors.
(3) Genes and functional parts will be re-used in different unrelated organisms.
(4) The genetic code will NOT contain much discarded genetic baggage code or functionless "junk DNA".

Creationists used to say these were predictions of evolutionary biology, except for #1.

People often confuse creationism with Intelligent Design because the two seem similar. But there are differences as well. Chief among them is this -- there are numerous ID proponents who don't subscribe to young earth creationism. Many ID proponents ( like Mathematician David Berlinski and Molecular Biologist Michael Denton ) are agnostic in fact. Michael Behe, one of the foremost proponents of ID and the one who popularized the term, Irreducible Complexity actually is on record as believing in common descent. This in itself separates him from the Biblical creationists.
Neither The Institute for Creation Research nor Answers In Genesis fully support or endorse Intelligent Design.
