You missed the big picture. Again, ID has been part of science as a given it is only in recent scientific history that it has been excluded (and without sufficient cause IMHO) Biology currently looks at organisms as designed and this is productive.
No, I'm aware of the history of science. ID was the assumption prior to Darwin. Darwin was aware of this also, which is why he delayed publishing for 20 years.
I am also aware that not one person in hundred understands selection. Until someone in the ID movement addresses natural selection, and not the cartoon version, the debate is just a shouting match.
I can tell when I've asked an interesting question in these threads because no one responds to them. I've asked about half a dozen in this thread that have received no replies. Some of them have been asked of you.
