"ID is part of a field of study. It's strength (or not) lies in the operative inference. Works the same for scientific thinking on evolution."

ID does not rely on the scientific method. ID also says the laws of physics are insufficient to govern the universe and all interactions and phenomenon in it. ID contradicts science in that regard and then introduces and inserts arbitrary forces to account for the phenomenon. Those arbitrary forces are not subject to study by the scientific method also. Most often they take the form of a fleeting existence.

Hi spunkets. I think your description is in the right direction. Scientists should recognize at the same time the all-too-common assumption that the laws of physics (or other laws) are exhaustive in their explanation of the universe and all interactions and phenomenon in it. This is called scientism and it has the same problem that all isms do.
