"Intelligent Design" is not science, I agree. I have long believed that science -- experiment, investigation, measurement -- could someday find "God," but I don't think ID is science.
I'm also frustrated by some loudmouth atheists who insist that our lack of scientific evidence for the existence of some sort of god is proof that no god exists. We haven't scientifically disproven the existence of a god or gods, although we may have scientifically proven that one person (or group's) "proof" for the existence of God doesn't stand up to scientific scrutiny. There's an important distinction between those two things.
