"I was curious to see what your 192 could possibly offer in the way of "predictions" of ID. (The only such I was aware of are of the form "Mechanistic science will never explain the fill-in-the-blank.") So you claim ID first predicted fast speciation. Where? Genesis?"

Intelligent Design makes a prediction by definition. Designers introduce new models in quantum steps, such as new car models each year. Applying this prediction to the fossil record means that Intelligent Design predicts that the fossil record will show rapid speciation. That happens to be the same prediction made by the current preferred replacement to Darwinism: Punctuated Equilibrium.

It also seems to align rather well with the actual known fossil evidence.

does it make predictions about anything besides the fossils?

I think not. Yours is instantaneous. There are known counterexamples.

Smooth Change in the Fossil Record.

(No, I'm not really Don Lindsay. I use other stuff in other discussions but he has some nice pages on speciation, mutations, etc.)
