Dawkins didn’t allow for a designer for life in the universe. He said that if you allow for extraterrestrial design for life on earth, then that designer would have had to have a natural origin.

The Hallmark of the ID movement is mking either unsupported statements and calling them facts.

Dude, an extraterrestrial designer does not have to have a natural origin. That's only true if you assume that reality is limited to naturalism and that is an unsupported statement that cannot honestly be called a fact.

Your rendition of Dawkins statement is making unsupported statements and calling them facts. But evos never do that, do they? Only ID'ers, huh?
