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
