ID is an idea much, much older than evolution and the scientific method. It’s nothing new. What IS relatively new is the admission by its leading proponent that ID is the scientific equivalent of astronomy.

Your inability or unwillingness to understand how our “parts” came to be as they are is not evidence for their “intelligent design.”

I mean, what cruel designer placed us on a planet wholly dependent on a giant fireball without providing us a type of skin cell immune to its cancer causing effects?

Purpose evident in intelligent design is not disproved by your conclusion that the Designer is “cruel” because of your interpretation of certain circumstances.

Yes. There's a big diffference between "intelligent design", and "Intelligent Design"

Suffering exists, therefore there is no intelligent designer? Really? That's pretty shallow stuff.

The most arrogant and boring people in the world are those that have suffered little.
