As far as i can tell, no proponent of ID has addressed the fact that if ID is so damn intelligent, then why have so many species become extinct. If in fact they admit that the species existed at all, I suppose they would say "it was god's will" or something equally lame. Really the whole ID principle appears to be haphazzardly cobbled together ans is filled with generous amounts of "we don't know, so it must have been god." IMO unless further research and other information is provided to support ID, it would probably be a waste of time in a philosophy class, let alone a science class. Save it for the theology classes.
