Intelligent design agrees wholeheartedly with the notion that dead things don't reproduce. ID'ers also generally agree that sick things don't reproduce as much.

Yes, ID uses Natural Selection. There is nothing incompatible with the principles of ID or Creationism.

Intelligent Design just says that God created everything in the universe with a purpose and intent - that man would glorify God. Natural selection does not conflict with Intelligent Design - they are two absolutely different things. Natural selection is seen every day and is scientifically observable and provable.

Yes. No one disagrees with species differentiation from a common ancestor. We just say that there are a lot fewer 'common ancestors' than evolutionists do, and they were created with the genetic potential for adaptation.
