To totally rule out ID without the conclusive data does not seem scientific. I submit that ID has brought extremely valid questions about evolution to the table that otherwise may never had been asked. We apply ID to different aspects of science and life (It would seem you have applied it to posts on this thread LOL) but we say it is not valid in biology. Cosmology and genetics may bring that statement into question.
You can't rule out ID because there can be no conclusive data. ID has nothing to tell us. It's religion.
