Wait a second. I thought you were the one who said "usefulness" is a positive attribute for science - one that would make ID a scientifically acceptable idea. What could be more useful than intelligent design? More importantly, what kind of science can happen without it?

Actually Issac Assimov said it but I agree with it. Usefulness of an assumption in science lies in its ability to predict verifiable facts not predicted without the assumption.
