Have I missed something?

Well, I'll then admit I haven't kept up to date on exactly what ID is currently being promoted as. I've read much more about evolution and abiogenesis than I have about ID. I just assumed ID was forcused more on origins than design. If what you quoted from Redlemon is really true, and not a misrepresentation, I agree that should not be taught in a scientific setting.
But on the other hand, it seems many of the anti-ID crowd sees ID's supporters as nothing but bible-thumping religious freaks, which I also disagree with. They use ID as nothing more than an issue to broad-brush any Christian as an unscientific clod. And that I do disagree wiht.
