Thats not quite true. Obviously we haven't seen big evolutionary changes in higher animals, but we have seen it quite readily in fast reproducing life forms. Anti-biotic resistance in bacteria being the classic and deadly example.
Further, reproducing the effect isn't needed to prove a theory. In fact you never really prove a theory, you fail to disprove. We can't reproduce black holes or super nova but there are still very valid theories surrounding them. You need to be able to TEST them. You can't test ID, you can test evolution be it with genetics or more mundane means.
ID may well be true, but we have no way of knowing. Evolution on the other hand has stood up to all challanges.
