Such a theory must stand or fall on its scientific merits, not on what group is backing it.

If the evidence shows that Intelligent Design best explains all transgenic animals, then that's the theory that should be used to explain them...whether that theory is preached from pulpits or not.

If I understand your posts upthread, then because modern scientists use intelligence and modern science to alter genes, that proves that some unknown and unnamed deity at some unknown and unnamed point in time for some unknown and unnamed reason and using an unknown and unnamed method designed all life.

Is that about it?

No. We can’t currently say that ID explains life before Man. However, we can say that ID conclusively explains all modern transgenic animals.

That’s a start.

And *if* ID stays on target in explaining DNA, then as we sequence more species and understand more genes (and eventually all Base-4 pairing op-codes at the programming level) then ID stands to remain above all other current theories for explaining such origins for the forseeable future.
