JazX - how do you keep it from being philosophical in the end? Really? Or touching on social issues?
ID isn't science. It's propaganda to undermine a line of thought that has fougt christianity for centuries, each ending with radically different world views and their attendant realities.
Look you can argue forever and a day about inconsistencies in argon content in lava, but it doesn't undermine in the end the total scientifice record for dating materials, which is solid.
The fact that ID'ers cherrypick those parts of science that are still in need of exploration and smack a giant "A-ha! A Missing piece! This is where your science becomes inconsistent and God explains it!" is a subtle and purely rhetorical in the end.
A scientist will say "Oh yeah, a missing piece in the knowledge puzzle. We'll work on that and come up with a working model which we will test."
An ID'er will say "Oh..hmm..well that's God you see. Can't explain that, and we'll really NEVER be able to explain that particular bit, and besides the Bible says so.."
