:::The problem is that people have been misled into thinking that ID is some sort of quasi-scientific "theory" or "hypothesis". It's not. It's a legal, political and PR ploy practically devoid of anything resembling science except to the scientifically clueless, no shortage of which unfortunately exists. If you approach it as science, there just isn't anything there but pure drivel. A major problem with the article is not making it abundantly clear that ID is not a coherent, elaborated "theory" that deserves serious evaluation, just a bunch of random hogwash.
